Just bought my first truck. I plan to use it as a learning experience. Being a gal with a lot of mechanics in the family I have decided to try to pick up on the car/truck hobby myself. I've got a 79 C30 and one of the gas tanks leaks. I found a guy on Craigslist with a brand new tank and two brand new outer shell doors (which I could use down the road) He also has a tailgate that is new. Apparently the parts were for an 87. From my limited knowledge I have tried to research whether those years are compatible for these specific parts. So far it seems the tailgate won't work, the doors will, and I can't find anything concrete on whether or not the tank will work. Could anyone give me an answer for sure? The guy said he thought the tank could work for either side of the truck, but he lives far from me so we both want to be sure its gonna work before I make the drive. Thanks much!
