Location: WA/USA | I bought this tank unseen for my 60 Plymouth Wagon and it seems to be for a 60 Dodge Wagon. It's labeled "60 Dart Wagon". The seller did not mention it was from a Dodge and assumed it would fit a Plymouth. Nope. I put it on the shelf and fixed my old tank.
It came out of AZ many years ago and I've just had it packed away. Appears to be pretty solid with a small dent on top. This is the tank only with no sending unit or filler neck. I'd like couple hundred bucks plus shipping to recoup my costs. Might have to hold off on shipping until the s**t has stopped hitting the fan as my State is on lockdown.

Location: Georgia | Very odd! According to my interchange manual, the '60 Plymouth wagon shares the fuel tank with: Chrysler SW '60-64, Dodge SW '60-61, plus Dodge 880 SW '62-64, and Plymouth SW '60-61. I wonder why this one is different-I wonder if it's mislabeled?

Location: WA/USA | Apparently it IS mislabeled. I sent pictures to another member here. It may be a Valiant tank or other... so please disregard.

Location: WA/USA | Edit: Old tank for sale. This would be good for a distillery in making antiseptic hand soap

Pete, I agree with the info that you posted about the gas tank interchange for 1960-64 station wagons.
I was interested in the tank and sent an email to the seller requesting a picture of the tank which he provided.
After reviewing that tank with two different ones I have from Dodge station wagons (a 1960 and 1961), certain that the tank referenced for sale is NOT correct for the 1960-64 station wagon models as you listed above.
This info was also communicated back to the seller in order to assist with properly identifying the tanks application, which he has now included a picture in this post

Location: Ramona, CA | Here is what the '60-64 full size wagon tank looks like. '64 is slightly different as they switched the sealing method for the fill pipe from and internal o-ring to an external grommet.
I'm trying to get Vans auto to reproduce the wagon tank but they said they need enough interest as they have to make 500 minimum. If enough people request it they might get on board.
