OEM located fuel cell / replacement fuel tank


I have an 1989 mustang GT that needs a fuel tank. Are there any aftermarket fuel cells available that will go in the oem location? I need the trunk space.

Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You just need a stock tank and you can get them from 5.0 resto for around 100 bucks
