<VV> Gas tank

[J R Read_HML]

It is pretty near impossible to get the tank out without cutting the rubber 
portion of the filler neck.  This means you need to have a new one available 
for the install.

If this is a beater, write off line and I can give you a non standard 
suggestion which avoids dropping the tank.
