Looking for this stock 34/35 Chevy Standard gas tank gallons size. Here is the Ebay Link: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Gas-Tank-1934-1935-Chevrolet-Standard/263697272504 Plus also a pic!

The 1933-1935 Standard tank held 11 galons There were two different tanks. One fit all 1934-1935 4 door and 1935 2 door and late 1934 2 doors One fit all 1933-1935 coupes and all 1933 2 and 4 door and early 1934 2 doors .
Close enough, especially since the tank sizes are likely not totally accurate anyway.
A google search showed a third gallon measurement - US Dry gallon. The numbers on that gas can are likely rounded though what we have been subjected to for decades living in a Metric wannbe country connected to an Imperial country. When you have many 2-stroke engines they get burned into your brain but "close enough" works.
Do you mainly use litres in Aus? Could there be a variation in the gallon there too?

Prior to metric we used imperial gallon which converts to 4.45609 litres and the American gallon is closer to 4 litres but I am not sure of exact conversion. Tony
