Hello,

you guys might remember a few weeks back I was talking about replacing
my front fuel tank.  I recieved helpful e-mails saying I should just
run off of the rear thank and forget the other one.  Seeing as how the
truck spent it's whole life (93) untill now in Rotchester Ny, i SHOULD
OF LISTENED TO YOUR ADVICE, seriously, the process was a pain in the
a.s, and I have new scars to show for it.  (you can only imagine what
the rest of the undercarriage must look like{if you can see through
the rust that is})
to make a long story short, I'm now in the market for a new tank.
Stainless with new straps, and probally a new sending unit, I know how
those fords are.

this truck is a 1-ton 351 short bed with a reading tool bed, ladder
rack, it was a roofing truck at some point, has a metal sliding bed
cover.  the bed is just big enough to carry a stack of full sized
plywood.

one question, what would be the most concise way to describe the truck
(IE; roofing tool truck/ truck with tool bed/ just a tool truck/ etc.,
I am planning on selling it soon, after I make a few minor repairs.

best, cut the bolts, you can replace them from the hw store

trying  to unbolt them is a pain.
