Hi Ben, I would like two please, 100% and can pay deposit. I will let you know left or right, I can supply the brass for the filler threaded parts. I will need the drain, vent cast and suction necks made but I have the pick ups and vent pipes which I could solder on myself into the cast brass part.

all this make sense?.

kev.

Hi Chris

I've been looking, the basic tank looks to be similar to the T16 type, perhaps someone with more knowledge can confirm the differences?

Cheers

Ben

I've had a firm quote of £300 per tank, plus any fittings. I'll be in touch with those who expressed an interest. Any others, this is your last chance. I'm only doing one batch!! Doesn't matter left or right hand tanks. I'm looking to get going on them in the new year.

I can supply fittings if needs be. A donor tank is the best and cheapest option.

Cheers

Ben

If these are for Mk11* Carriers I would be interested in a passenger side one.

I made the mistake of filling one of mine half full with disel thinking it would preserve it. For what ever reason it had the opposite effect.
