'64 Olds 98

Hello fellow members! I am a rookie to the classic car scene. Picked up this car and it needs work. First and foremost is replacing the leaky fuel tank. Having a hard time finding one, but my buddy says he found an original somewhere in Missouri. Will post pics some time in the next few days. Looks like this site has a wealth of knowledgeable people! Glad to be a member because I am sure I'm going to need help.

If you can't find one some radiator shops repair them.

Interchange is 63-64 Oldsmobile B & C body cars (88/98/Starfire/Jetstar I) if that makes finding one easier.

Welcome to the forum, we need more of the full size cars. You can also use Gas Tank Renu, they repair and reseal inside and out: http://www.gastankrenu.com/

Post some pictures of your car if you can.
