Update. Tank sending unit has been changed to a vent sending unit. Still has the gas smell but not as bad when full but it's still there. I ran the fuel line vent over to the passenger side and up into the cab wall like a 71/72 model. It's no where near as bad as it was but it's not completely gone either.
Anybody got any suggestions.

It never smelled before I had the tank cleaned out.
