  If you were buying a new tank for your 32 ford. would you go with the higher capacity tank? Why or Why not?

Thanks in advcance

  I would look for a good original tank. I don't know but do the higher capacity tanks hang down and look funny?

  Many original frames without the later reinforcements at the rear cross member exhibit distortion from the combined weight of the stock gas tank and the rear-mounted spare wheel and tire. A larger capacity gas tank mounted on an early frame would increae that tendency if used with a rear-mounted spare wheel and tire.
