Hi,

 

I have a 1970 TR-6 I'm re-building and I recently discovered the fuel tank
has a few holes rotted through the bottom.  I've looked at various vendors
and noticed that there is a staggering difference in price on replacement
tanks with most of them being "unobtainium" for my budget.

 

The tank offered by Victoria British is substantially cheaper; so much so
that I'm a bit suspicious.  Has anyone used these or heard anything about
them being inferior to those offered by the other major vendors like MOSS or
TRF?

 

Also, I have a body shop guy who is recommending I look into getting the
current tank repaired.  I'm not sure if this is a wise course of action and
am curious if anyone has successfully done this and/or knows of shops in the
Boston or Eastern Massachusetts area that could look at this thing.  I think
the biggest hole is about the size of a nickel.

 

Thanks very much!



 

Rick
