Technical gas filler neck hose length

Howdy.
Was wondering if anybody knows how long the gas filler neck hose ought to be for a 1950 Plymouth 2-door club coupe. Thanks!

 

Crawl under it with a tape measure and you will know.

 

there is no tank or hose at the moment...

 

Not even going to say put a tank in and measure...

 

just wanted to see if anyone knew offhand. but thanks. i'll do that.

 

4 feet should do ya

 

Once you have everything mounted, go to O'reilys and buy a length of "gas filler neck hose" and cut it to fit. That's where I got mine.

 

And don't use radiator hose even though it's way cheaper. The gas will eat it up and you will have a fire. Buy the real gas filler neck hose.

 

Thanks for the useful replies, fellas.

 

Most Napa stores will sell you gas filler hose by the inch. Others may too but I have bought it at Napa a number of times by the inch. You do need to know the id of the hose you want though as there are several sizes. I'm thinking you will probably need only somewhere between four and six inches of hose because you should have a steel filler neck up most of the way from the tank until it gets up close to the fender.

 

theres probably a forum for that kind of car
