I’m looking for a serviceable fuel tank for my 1956 car. Cap and fill neck would be great too!

Will a series 2 tank work for you? I have a couple extra.

If you can’t find a used one, I have a friend who makes new ones from Stainless.

He also makes new body panels, frames, and bulkheads. He has original LR tooling from the 50s. His family was a supplier to LR in Asia from the 50s-70s.

Cool! I’m guessing you met him when you drove to Singapore?

Yep. He’s in Bangkok.

You can find him as “PAT.Garage” on facebook.

Cheers

Hi Ray,
Have you been able to get a quote from your friend about these SS tanks? My tank is beyond repair.
