If you are up to doing some work, there is a less expensive Chevy repro tank that can be made to work. As was mentioned earlier, repro Packard tanks for the 48-50s were not available a year ago so people did that they could. The Chevy tank will not be seen and maybe OK and at considerably less money worth the effort but the stock fuel sender and the fill pipe are some of the things that will need adapting.

Check out the blog by Tinman_70 at the PAC forum for the basics of what he had to do. His work is spread thru the blog but some of the more detailed gas tank work starts on page 64 of his blog.
