March 30, 20178 yr comment_516808 Actually, I have one that I just restored. Unfortunately Like Mark has mentioned before, shipping from GA to Alberta would not be pretty.

March 30, 20178 yr Author comment_516810 I have ordered parts from further what kind of price would you looking for if your willing to sell it ?Sent from my SM-G530W using Classic Zcar Club mobile Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/57387-wtb-7778-280z-gas-tank-no-dents/#findComment-516810 Share on other sites More sharing options...
March 30, 20178 yr comment_516812 I am very fortunate to have benefitted from another's loss...A guy in Ontario had his paint prepped and stripped car stolen from the body shop... he hung onto all the parts for twenty years hoping it would surface. In the end he sold me his near perfect tank. It needs cleaning and sealing but otherwise 95% dent free. Best i could hope for. And yes, shipping from Ontario cost as much as the tank...!

March 30, 20178 yr Author comment_516815 Ya i here ya getting parts from the states is crazy I have gotten stuff from MSA in California and by the time I get it they almost twice the price after exchange rate then I can get parts from Australia or Japan it is faster and cheaper it's strange.

March 30, 20178 yr Author comment_516816 I have tossed over the hole fuel cell idea I am just not crazy about the hole cutting out the wheel well to do it , does it sacrifice the body strength?

March 30, 20178 yr comment_516817 Not if you reinforce the area with the fuel cell holding brackets. Another member here in Edmonton is going that route with his 76 as well.
