OK, Miles tale of woe has got me worried. I disassembled my car 4 months ago, it was running just fine before the "rustoration" started, and in the process I drained and removed by gas tank. It has been sitting on the parts shelf since then. What should I do (if anything) to clean and reline the tank? How should I store it (I haven't done anything, but it sits there with no gas in it and the cap on. Any suggestions will be appreciated. By the way, IMHO the way the Steve at Otto's has responded has not helped him at all. Based on his comments alone, I would not care to do business with his shop. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif)

Yes that is correct I am Steve Stromberg .I have dealt with many of you when I was at Pelican .Where I was know as the Grommet Hunter. Just try and get odd stuff from Pelican now, It anit going to happen as NO ONE there is the Master of the Micro Fiche like myself . So If I may be of service feel free to email me with those Items that you are looking for. Door Handle seals No problem. I have sources for parts all over the world. Between Otto and Myself you are getting 60 years of Porsche Knowlege. Steve
