Okay hopefully this format works
I dropped the tank out of the car......Its been sitting since 1981 with 17,000 miles on the clock!
The 4 bolts up front connecting through the frame came out like brand new.
The 4 studs holding the strap out back, 3 came off by hand and a 4 th was snapped off, Id say 45 years ago!
Im not restoring this to show, Im restoring and preserving for driving and history.
It been re painted red from black but , underneath this car is a pure un touched virgin.
I cannot mess around with safety as I drive all my cars.
The tank is shot , Im cleaning up the original sending unit as they are much better than the repros.
It works fine.
Im going to try Andrew Wiltshire and his Alloy tank? They look spot on and done for life.
I could paint it black but the workmanship looks wonderful!
Any thoughts?
Any thoughts on the Quick silver exhaust ,? Is there a factory replacement?
Thanks in advance.
