With the amount of rusted out tanks around I thought a decent filler neck wouldn't be too hard to find.

It is down to the rear quarter sheet metal where the filler cap sits. FE FC wagon and FE EK commercial are all the same.

Clay is right they are a bit different but if you are going to join it with a piece of rubber hose rather than weld it to the tank it will fit OK.

The neck is going to be fitted to a Mustang tank so a rubber joiner will be used.

so you don't need a tank - just a neck ? you can buy filler necks aftermarket if you aren't concerned about it looking original
