1973-74 Cutlass fuel tank

Does anyone have a 1973 CSM handy? I think I might have inadvertently sold both of mine.

Trying to determine differences between 1973 and 1974 Cutlass fuel tanks. The 74 CSM shows 1974 fuel tanks except Omega and wagons have an internal slosh baffle. The parts book shows different numbers for 1973 and 1974 tanks, but sending unit and gas cap p/n are the same both years.

Auto City Classics lists a tank for 1973 Chevelle and Cutlass. Appearance and capacity look identical to the 1974 Cutlass tank picture in the CSM. I'm thinking that slosh baffle may be the only difference.

Can anyone verify that with the 73 CSM?

I'm not coming this year, Joe. I can't walk these big meets like I used to and I'm too cheap to rent a scooter.

Does Auto City set up at Carlisle now? I ordered a Toronado windshield from them at Carlisle years ago.

I'm testing the water on the Cutlass tank, but I'm planning to get one of the 61-64 big car tanks. If they deliver to Carlisle I'll order it and get Tim and Marshall to pick it up there.

Provided Marshall doesn't fill up the truck with tires, wheels and 60s speed equipment first!😄

Yes, Auto City has at least one booth at Spring and Fall. I'm picking up a windshield from them next week.
