Got a quote from a local guy (Pittsburgh PA area) for about $400 to clean and coat my '73 gas tank. Sierra Madre has a new one for about $220. A repro made by Dansk. Stoddard has the same one but are out of stock.
I have read somewhere repro tanks don't fit well. Takes some work to get them to fit like the factory one. Anyone had any experience good or bad with repro tanks? Dont know if Dansk is a good one or not. Would appreciate any tips and opinions. EJP914 |
