look at shifty's page. He's got his hidden under the bed, and the filler underneath the reflector or something. Unless third degree burns and death, as well as the loss of your truck, are enjoyable to you, GET IT OUT!. My uncle had to bail out of his '67 on the freeway, when the battery under his seat ignited the seat, lighting the tank on fire. very very dangerous.
Good opportunity to smooth out that part of the cab, while you're at it.

Here's mine in my 65. It's a Blazer poly tank.... no room for it anywhere else but the rear.

I'm getting a custom tank from a guy in michigan it holds only 11 gals. and is rear mounted I like it cause it doesn't hang low the bad thing is that I'll have to fuel often.
