Thread: Where can I get a new fuel tank for a 57 Buick Special?

  1. #1

    Where can I get a new fuel tank for a 57 Buick Special?

    Does anyone know where I can purchase a fuel tank for a 57 Buick Special? I've located tanks up to 1956 but can't locate a source for 57. Thanks

    I also am looking for a gas tank, but for 56 Buick Special 4dr. You say you have found them up to the year 56.. Can you let me know who you found that was providing 56 Buick gas tanks. Thanks for your help.

    If only seen the new ones for up to 54 models. I'm looking for a '58 Special/Century tank.

    When I bought my 57 Special there was an extra gas tank in the trunk. I can check and see if it's water tight. E-mail me at ownedcasey@hotmail.com if you're still in need of one and I'll get it checked out.

    Thanks for your reply. I ended up using a new 1970 Buick GS tank, needed to take out the wheel well and modified the filler neck a bit.
