    Sending unit

    My 68 Wildcat is well on the way to passing it's certification for plates. Only the fuel tank and trunk welding repair is left to do. I need to get the fuel tank rebuilt and it would be foolish to not tackle the sending unit and seal at the same time in my opinion. I have been looking for a sending unit for my car and have found them for around $110. to $150. USD. but They often have differing illustrations. Getting stuff sent up from the States, paying duty, exchange and shipping is a fact of life when restoring these cars up in Canada, but having the wrong part when the tank is removed at a shop would be a major hassle. Where is the best place to find a fuel sending unit for this car?

    Thanks for the help, Gary

    Send your original out to get rebuilt, then you KNOW it will fit & function as intended.

    I don't have the turn around time to get mine rebuilt as I need it immediately after the tank is rebuilt. I found this place and ordered one...
