Trying to remove everything from a 73, I’ve watched videos and read the forum but my gas tank won’t budge. Top is free, am I missing a step, any ideas?
It’s empty, been sitting for 25 years with fuel lines cut. |

Does the tank move at all? If not, I agree that it's either stuck to the rubber pieces or to the frame of the car. I'd take off the belly pan under the car and look up into the inspection hole on the right side. Make sure the lines are cut just after the pipes leaving/entering the fuel tank. You should also be able to see if the tank is rusted to the frame.
