    So, how would you deal with this...regular cleaning of fuel system (carb, fuel filter, etc.)?...replace gas tank, sending unit, fuel pump, and/or fuel line? Replacing the tank will be somewhat costly. I think a stock tank from Chevys Of The 40's is about $265. I just cleaned the carb and changed the filter last time and that sufficed. But if I have deteriorating components I think I should replace them. I'm just not sure how far I need to go? And will I need to do most, but not all, of it yearly?
