Would appreciate any guidance on the best place to get a new fuel tank for my 67 Galaxie 500 Convertible. All the ones I find do not have a filler neck. Do they come as one piece with a neck?
Thank you in advance for your help!! New to this, I am sure I will have a lot more questions

I am not 100% sure as I am not that familiar with the 67 Galaxie however I do know that many of fords offerings in the late 60s came with two piece fuel tank where the fuel neck was removable because they were cheaper to produce. It is probably not likely that you will find a one piece tank.

Melvins has the tank.1966-1968 25 GALPart# F47A $349.00 EACH
No filler neck. It looks like there is a rubber gasket that the filler neck inserts into from the filler door compartment after the tank is installed in position. That's the way it is on my 1966 and I think they use the same tank as the 1967.
Dearborn Classics has both the tank (more expensive) and filler pipe seal, but no filler pipe. You could probably get one at a local salvage yard that would work.
Dennis Carpenter also shows a tank and filler pipe seal. No neck.
