    There are new tanks made for the later year Mavs. Swapping a Mustang tank in can be good too. There is a tech article on that posted here.

    I highly recommend going with a new tank instead of a used one. A 30 year old used tank is bound to be cruddy, even if it looks great externally.

    just use the later straps 75-77 with the later gas tank, or longer bolts with ur currect straps and it'll bolt right in
