MG TD TF 1500 - 1954 MGTF Gas Tank Leak

The gas tank on my 54 mgtf has developed a fairly significant leak. It is near the bottom of the tank on the right side. It appears to me that the spare tire bracket must be removed to get the tank off the car. Is this true? Any other details I should know about in getting the tank off? Any helpful info in doing this much appreciated. John

Removing the spare tire bracket isn't really necessary, it just gives you more room with it off and the lower sheet metal off. Make sure the fuel indicator sender wire is disconnected and gas line. Remove the upper strap bolts, move the straps out of the way and the tank will lift off.
