Default Bens tanks.

Hi, Finished one of Bens made tanks today, Can't tell it from an Original .

Just a note for those finishing them, remember to blow through the vent pipes after soldering, also go easy on tapping out the pick up fitting holding screw holes, I broke a tap.

Used POR fuel tank sealer, works great, stops rust, follow the prep process before applying, be careful to blow through the vent lines, apply with drain plug and pick up line removed.

Thanks Ben,
