Hi, I happen to know Brian Westlake (TONY) has one.
Not sure if it is for sale, but worth asking.

G'day Joe and Marie-Ann,

If you have no luck with Tony's tank, Marty Dean is making beautiful stainless steel tanks of around 60L capacity... bit bigger than original, but a nice deal if you are not going down the restoration route. They are a well built, bolt in product - they come with all the hardware, even fuel sender. Marty gets busy, so it can take some months to get a tank. They are not cheap, but I believe good value - even if I could weld to that standard, the time and materials to make one would be more than Marty charges. He organised freight to NSW for me, can't remember which courier but it arrived well and price was OK.

Hello Harv,

Thanks for the info , that sound great :vecctor: , we have 9 classic cars in total lol and the wife loves her pink EK best ( even more then me ). lol :loveee:
The EK got a red 202 :evilll: and even an air con ( all come with the motor from the wreckers for a song ( and we cant sing lol).
Well we will wait on dear Tony, we don't mind even a tank that need fixing, this way Marie-Ann can still drive her ( smelly) car :dohh: while the other tank is getting fixed.

cheers, :starr:
