Gas tanks, headlights and other things...

For a while now I have been questioning the legitimacy of my ’49 B1. The cab has the cut out for a gas tank under the cab. Were there ANY PW’s built with this option? Everything else on the cab looks original. There is no tank there now and the hole has been covered up.

Would it be possible to install a tank under the cab? Would it be between the frame rails or under the seat? Is there enough room for it if it’s supposed to be between the frame rails? I think I could make a pretty cool dual tank set up if it will fit.

Also, I have found a ‘40’s style 2 wheel drive truck. I haven’t been able to get a close look at it yet, the yard was closed the day I was “window shopping”. I am pretty sure that the cowl lights are the same as a PW, are the headlight buckets even remotely similar? Will the seat from this truck attach to the original mounts in the PW?

Thanks in advance for your help !
