Due to the age of your car, you should check all the lines' condition going to and from your fuel tank before you start removing the tank (replace any damaged line). it may be corroded so bad that it will fall apart when you remove them. you need to drain the gas out. it's hard to bench press 20 gal of gas :) good luck.

Make sure that all of the connections are removed and the tank is clear of the suspenson and exhaust. You'll have to jack this car up high to allow some clearance. This is all there is to it. If you left one wire on, you won't get the tank out. Take your time and do it right.
