Agree, no ground strap. The sender was grounded with a clip that went from the pickup to the main fuel line. There should be a blue wire that goes through a grommet in the trunk that plugs directly onto the sending unit.

Welcome. Great info you have put together there.

Hey KD, it looks like this. I used one of the high tubes for venting and the low one as a return if fuel makes it that far when it expands. I have the same tube in my trunk. The tube that goes up front ends up at the valve cover breather which stores any fumes in the crankcase. Hope that helps.

Thanks Don. I think you will be very happy with your tank. Good luck with yours when you get to it.

I installed the tank into the car. Before doing all of this, I cleaned up the straps and original hardware. I reused the original tank mat as it was in near new condition. 54 years old and in amazing shape. Once the tank was nice and snug, I connected the rubber fuel lines to the hard...

Update; So I finally received my tank and sending unit from Tanks Inc. I want to say a big thank you to @HALIFAXHOPS for sending my stuff over to Germany and @1 Wild R/T for putting me onto this method in the first place. Two great forum members. I unwrapped this beauty and started work...

Here is a Tanks INC tank which is galvanized and then powder coated. Looks factory.

My gas tank arrived today. Prepped it ready for install.

The car looks fantastic. Its a huge challenge to take on a restoration like that in Germany, so congratulations to you for that. I am sure all of the extra shipping and customs charges hurt your wallet, but the car is amazing so worth it.

From the factory service manual. You will see that you need to plug the other three to stop gas sloshing out. Your setup is not ideal, but for now, so long as yoy have a vent on one, you should be ok. The system is designed so the tank can vent no matter what angle the car is at. One of the...

Congrats. Beautiful car and deserving of the win.

Running this at the moment. Seems to be doing a good job.

Beautiful job as always Wayne. I love the attention to detail you provide on all of your cars clean ups. Thanks for sharing and enjoy driving that stunning car.

I had issues with mine. It turned out to be an intermittent connection at the bulkhead connector. As others have said, pull it and check for crud build up on the threads of the sender. Test the wiring back to the gauge. If you ground out the signal wire, the gauge should go to H. You can do that...

In preparation for my new tank, I removed the old one with a crack in it. Its such a shame as the original tank is in amazingly good condition. Oh well, its done 54 years, that's probably enough. First I cut the old hoses off near the tank. This is an ECS car, so has the 4 nipples on the side...
