New Fuel Tank

Gday,
I think my fuel tank is a bit far gone. I need a new tank for a 1956 S88, 4DR Hardtop. If anyone can help or point me in the right direction that would be great. Thanks in advance!!

I have been told that you cant get them any more by Fusicks and i would have to restore an old tank. Kanter do sell the repair kits. I want to replace evrything so its all new but its not looking good

Why replace the tank when you can repair it? Unless of course the tank is so BAD that it leaks like a sieve. There is anothe current post about fuel tank repair. You might want to read that one. From what I hear the kits out there are top notch.

I think this is the link Jesse was referring to. Also check out the link to POR15 which is in one of these threads. From what other members and emailed me, it's a really good product,BUT DONT GET IT ON YOU OR YOU'LL BE WEARING IT FOR AWHILE.

Good luck with your "Rusty tank" Hope it is salvagable, it's always nice to have original metal.
