It needs floors, but first things first get that gas tank out! Couldn’t rotate the neck so a NOS bottle clamp for a roll bar was put on to get some bang behind it. It finally gave without damages to anything, just one mark on the old pipe.

It smelled like grand ma’s closet and enough spare change inside for a night on the town.

Check the dates on the spare change. Dimes & quarters 1964 and older are still silver. Don't spend them!
 
Keep your lock ring, new ones are much thinner and bend.
63 Tank from various sources will work with some mods.
You need to move the mount strap on the frame rails a little.

Thanks for the tip I’ll keep it in a box then. I’m having an aluminum one made, using the original one as a template.
 
Ah the wonders of rubber floor mats !

Talk about a bad case of floorotitis !
