It took me forever to find a original. Mittelmotor in Germany has new ones. Part number is 901 107 083 00.
Here is mine:     And where it's been hiding!   Attached image(s)

Interesting that it has an oil system part number (second set = 107) when it was rumored to be an early 911 washer fluid tank.
If I recall my 66 911 had a bladder... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) Please send me that box. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

The GT parts manual lists part # 901 628 720 22, and that is what I have. It is identical to the tank that Eric has and other photos I have seen.
Nice filter mount. Can you show more detailed photos of it please. |

Your number may be correct, and the application the same. If you notice this bottle looks almost identical but the mount tabs are not in the same place, rather just slightly inward compared to mine. Additionally it doesn't come witht the holes for the oil lines. This may be what you have, and may be a washer fluid bottle.
    By the way this is on Ebay right now. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsche-Rac...sspagenameZWDVW |

No doubt they're different tanks. Kevins is narrower and taller. The one that Dave and I have is in the 121 Sunauto car. They are both GT tanks for sure. I've seen the one Kevin has in GT's as well.
Here's his in the Monte Carlo Rally car:  I'd be interested to know more about the rubber grommets because it seems they just stuck hoses in them at random. A lot of cars have the grommets though. In fact, the Sunauto car in my picture on the previous page uses grommets in the front like Kevin's tank. |

The application seems to be a 1967, 1968 911/912 washer tank.
For what it is worth, I don't think the specific part is critical. The factory parts list was more of a suggestion. When you see the actual cars, there are many differences due to mechanics choice. Look at the variety of locations used for the tanks alone. |

I would agree dave. I think it was an after thought, and so they used whatever. I never really made the connection that there was a difference. Additionally, when I got mine, I was suprised how small it is. Just seemed bigger in photo's.
Eric, like the mount. I'm in the process of making one to mount against the firewall. I even found the original rubber strap! |

Can you measure those rubber grommets?

Sure, I'll dig it out. Now that the wife is back, I need to do "covert" operation. She doesn't know what's in there. More to come.
