Is it possible to clean a gas tank out...yourself?
(Preview)
My fuel tank on my 65 looks to be in good condition...on the outside, but I know it'll probably be filled with 55 years of who knows what. Is it possible to drain it out and flush it with some product to at least make it decently clean? One thing that might be of benefit, the sender on the 65/66 sits directly o...

1965 B body. Smaller gas tank?
(Preview)
In laying underneath my 65 today something struck me as odd. The fuel tank looks significantly smaller than I remember the 67-69 being. Were they smaller in that year? Also, I cant see any strap holes further forward on the trunk braces, so this size must have been all there was?

Anyone here have a genuine Canadian Pontiac 1965 AM antenna for sale? One that would have been front fender mounted. There is a cheesy aftermarket antenna in place on my 65, and obviously the hole was drilled, and it was added later as the car came with a radio delete plate. So it's all garbage. I'm not up...
