Title: Fuel line / Tank
Post by: sangron on 2007-07-26 22:23
I'm looking to replace my entire fuel line.  anyone have any ideas where I can order one, preferably pre bent?  I am also changing my fuel tank, I am considering using an early mustang tank, has anyone done this?  Has anyone used any tank that wasnt stock?  Any help or tips would be appreciated.

On the fuel line, I just bent up a piece of 3/8 steel brake line and clamped it to the frame on mine.
The stock tank is concaved to fit against the phony spare tire well. You'd have to cut it up to put
another type of tank in. I also had a 3/8 pick up put in the tank while it was being repaired. They do have
new Ranchero tanks available now I've been told.
Good Luck, Ron
BTW, nice looking Ranchero

Dennis Carpenter has reproduction gas tanks now for the ranchero and wagons - something like $300.
