What was original gas tank fuel capacity ?

On a 69 Coronet. What was the original fuel capacity, 16 gallons ? I see most aftermarket tanks have 19 gallon capacity. I own a 1950 Chevy deluxe and it’s original tank was 16, but I bought a 19 gallon capacity for that car. Being I believe I have the original tank on the Coronet. I was wondering if that aftermarket tank applies to it too. I don’t see anything in the manual stating original tank capacity.

I believe the 19 gallon reproduction tank is correct.

Yeah, I just found it in the manual. 19 gallons. Shorter wheel base imperial models had a 18. So, all b Bodies had a 19.
