I think the gas tank is under the rear seat. Pop out the porthole under there and you should see it. I believe its metal but could be wrong. Will check next time I'm working on it.

Humm....I thought the gas tank was under the dash.There's one of those port hole covers under the center console of the dash.

Should be under the floor from the rearbulkhead up to the dash. Tank should be aluminum and 60g.

Heh, looks like we're both kind of right. Was wondering what that other porthole was for. Need to start getting her ready for spring. Tons of projects to finish.

the port hole in the back lets you get to the fuel sender and the port hole under the dash lets you get to where the fill hose dumps into the tank.Hope this helps.
