    Is this a one year only tank? I found one locally for pretty cheap and might pick it up. I have a 72 and the sending unit is towards the front in the middle instead of the left side

    Yes, the 70 tanks are different than the other years. It won't work in your 72 unfortunately.

    Sounds like a hard to get part that might be worth getting if the price is right.

    And no one makes an aftermarket 70s tank.
