Need an M2 LH fuel tank
« on: November 17, 2016, 07:47:42 PM »
I have one original I was going to put sealer in and use but decided it is just too bad to use. So, I need a fuel tank, who all makes them and what is the going price for one?  I am only going to run one tank and use my bad tank as a dummy on the other side.

That's smart....I should have thought of that! >:(  Instead, I have two new tanks...wonder if I'll ever need to go more than 180 miles before refueling?  Probably not...that extra fuel tank was probably money not well spent!

I also had this as my plan for my M2 halftrack. It came with two original fuel tanks, the plan is to sell one, and replace it with a repro to run the halftrack with.

Just to note we make new fuel tanks. They have the original look and feel but then in modern HDPE so capable to contain all modern gasolines.
