Hi Mike
I have a couple of pristine Cinnabar gas tanks, but like you say, they're
not cheap. $1k for the set and they're not cheap to ship either.
Plastic would be the way to go alright with a good steel rock guard.
Good to hear from you again.

Subject: [GMCnet] New plastic gas tanks needed
We have a perfectly good 1973 GMC we rebuilt to perfection... 10 years
ago... We made it mechanically sound. I removed and coated both rusted gas
tanks. That lasted a few years. Now they leak again. If I fill them, the
engine runs fine but then leaks all over.
It is a dang shame to have a good GMC motorhome sitting in the barn not able
to even be driven into town.
Does anyone have a source yet of reasonable priced replacement bolt in
tanks? $ 500.00 is not reasonable. Plastic preferred?
