Mike,

If you are looking for a new tank, go to the parts and resources section of this web site and look up 'Greg's Speed Shop'. Greg offers a super nice copy of the original Chilton 5 qt. tank.

Thank you for the lead but I contacted Greg and he informed me he's no longer producing the Rupp fuel tank. With this in mind I'm still on the hunt for an original tank so if anyone has one, please let me know.

Thanks

Michael, Dick Flourey of Medford OR had two Chilton tanks (5 qt.) at Dixon this past weekend, they both needed work (dents) but seem to be useable, they could be repaired, I believe he was asking $60.00 each.

Do you want a 5 qt or a 7 qt?

Louie,

Thanks for the info. I'll attempt to get a hold of Dick.

Rob,

I would prefer 7qt. but would also consider a 5qt. The condition of the fuel tank will most likely be the deciding factor.

Thanks
