dagoracing Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Recently pulled gas tank out of car. Took it to a radiator/gas tank repair shop, I was told the tank needs to be acid dipped, then sandblasted inside before it can be resealed. approx $500. Does this sound about right, and price wise? what does a new replacement tank go for (if anyone makes one)? Does anyone have a good spare tank? Detroit/Ann Arbor, MI area. Thanks for any help.
Gunslinger Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 realize things cost what they cost, but before shelling out the money, I would check with George Dimitsas of Olympus Avanti in Chicago (773-486-6026) or Dan Booth at Nostalgic (1-800-AVANTI-1). George sells new gas tanks fabricated from stainless steel and Dan sells rebuilt original gas tanks. They can each give you a price and you can decide which way to go. They might even take your old tank in trade to be redone and put back into the "food chain".
