I've been reading about fuel tanks.  Some of the links have been on here since Al Gore invented the net.  Is POR still the thing to use?  Is there a better product?  Or a similar product that is the latest. 

Since I know nothing about 240z, and I've heard about fuel fumes in the cabin, how can I eliminate the possibility of fumes ?

Probably 100 threads will come up if just google exhaust fumes.

I use Por-15- good stuff

This was most helpful for me on my 240.  Got a lot of info but ended up using Red-Kote like I did on my 280 whisc I used this other link.  Confusing, I know.  I just woke up.

I used Red Kote on the inside of mine.

I spent a HUGE amount of time reading all kinds of posts about what to use on the outside and have since decided that it probably doesn't make that much of a difference. If I were doing it again, I think I'd just clean up the outside, spray on epoxy primer, and hit it with whatever catalyzed black paint I could find. (For the record, I ended up using this stuff: https://nomorerust.com/store/home/14-mastercoat-super-special-chassis-kit.html)
