<VV> 63-65 FC (Shift thru) gas tank on a 61 Greenbrier?

[W. John Lanese]

All,

 

This is the first in string of 10,000 questions I'm sure to pose to you guys
and gals: I have a 61 Greenbrier that the previous owner actually screwed
the gas tank to the body with 5 metal screws from the inside.  I've siphoned
and removed the tank, and I'm wondering if I should buy the used 63-65 FC
(shift thru) I can get from Clarks, or have the original repaired (holes in
the top from the screws)?  The rest of the original tank is in fair shape -
no rust (Scottsdale, AZ vehicle) and few if any dents.

 

Will the 63-65 FC (shift thru) gas tank work on a 61 Greenbrier?

 

Who are the FC specialist out there, and are any close to Lansing, Michigan?

 

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
