I bought this tank earlier this year as my round tank had sprung a leak, where I've decided to persevere with the round tank as it's right for an '81.
I finally got around to checking to see if it's fuel tight last Friday, where unfortunately there's a leak around the sender flange - I think that at some point someone has fitted bolts to the flange that are too long and have punctured the bottom of the tank. This could be easily fixed by welding or brazing around the outer edge of the flange, which I did consider doing but didn't want to burn the paint.
The paint isn't the best but it's certainly usable, though the underside isn't pretty and there's the odd chip around the edge. There is a bit of rust inside but it's certainly otherwise salvageable. It comes with the fuel sender but no cap, tap or rubbers.
£100 plus delivery, or I'd certainly be up for a deal on another round tank if anyone has one?
