Completely different animal from the 21 gallon A body tanks. I have not seen any reproductions of this correct GP tank.

I'm looking for another one for my 72 LeMans GT.
Looking at some photos of different '70 GP's, there looks to have been a change in tank size during the '70 model year production. Here are two survivor cars with their original tanks. The first photo shows the smaller 21.5 gal tank (April '70 build) and the second shows the larger tank (June '70 build) with four indentations in the bottom much like the '71-'72 GP tanks have.

I'm curious, are you still able to access the factory rear strap anchors in the trunk floor when installing these deeper tanks into an A-Body car?
