Are the gas tanks the exact same on both the open and closed 1926/1927 Model T's? Thanks in advance.

I might be wrong about this, however, I think the fordor is still under the seat but the others are under the cowl.

Fordor is under the seat. Gas "door" is present on Fordor cowl, but functions as a vent. Not sure about Tudor and coupe.

Tudor and Touring may not be the same, ran across this post while researching for my 1927 Touring.
