Gas Tank Removal-73 Imperial

["Woolf,Richard" <richard.woolf@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave,

 I removed the gas tank from my '73 Imperial, and it's no big deal. The tank does have four vent/pollution hoses in the front (which should be replaced), and the typical tank straps. You should be able to get the tank out within an hour. Make sure most are all of the fuel is removed.

Subject: IML: Gas Tank Removal-73 Imperial

Has anyone removed gas tanks from their Imperials?  I'm contemplating doing so in "The Sleeping Giant" that I have but want to know ahead of time what I'm up against.  I'm not doing so out of any particular necessity just want to clean out the inside, since I imagine it's full of sentiment.  Beyond making sure the tank is near empty, are there any other tips out there?
