1929 gas tanks 4 dr.

The only difference I'm aware of is that there are several extra holes drilled on the front upper cowl lip of the gas tank where it gets bolted/screwed to the fordor outer cowl.

Remove the two "strainers" which are the fore/aft support braces in the cowl, under ether end of the tank. Next, remove the firewall center panel. Last, remove the remaining fasteners which include screws across the front just behind the hood lacing and bolts across the rear of the tank. The tank will drop down and can be removed out the rear.

Please note you will need at least one other person. It may make more sense to leave the firewall center panel in place with one bolt to hold the tank up at the front and one of the rear upper bolts in place to support the rear until you are prepared to lower the tank down.
 
If it's the one I think it is, this was discussed in the Restorer a few issues back, very detailed with pictures. For sure you need another person. It comes out thru the seating area. Somebody please correct me if I'm wrong. If I am, sorry.
