Removing Gas Tank from a 23rd Series Deluxe Club

Hello Packard owners,

I am going to be removing the gas tank on my 1950 Packard Deluxe Club sedan and want to be prepared for any "Packard nuances" that I should be aware of. Other than disconnecting the fuel line and removing both support straps, is there something else I should keep in mind? For example, in looking inside the trunk I don't see any access to the fuel gauge wires, so I guess they are accessed under the trunk. I tried searching all the manuals, parts book and service bulletins and couldn't locate anything on gas tank removal best practices. Your suggestions and input, including any photos, is greatly appreciated.
