Thanks, guys, for the fuel tank answers.
Not to argue, but just to show what I found: fusick has "fuel tanks sending units" but not fuel tanks - at least in the catalog. I did not call them (yet). Fusick also does not have the "Oldsmobile" letters for the hood of a 54, though it has nearly all the other years.
Regarding get a tank built locally or otherwise, I'm not going to laugh at the idea of dropping $750 on a stainless if that's what it takes. I do like my money, though, and would like to keep as much of it as possible in my own pocket. I will look around. Some might say that stainless is overkill, but anything else requires coatings for protection or looks anyway.
I didn't even think about the idea of having one custom made by local experts. (There are good tradesmen all over.) Someone with skill, knowledge of what is required of a gasoline tank for automobile use, and the original one to copy from, could probably do just what I need.
