Do you mean original tanks are "unobtainium" or all tanks?? Rimmer lists
a replacement for the the 1500 in their catalog. I am sure if he is still
reading here our MailingList Rimmer Rep can probably tell us if this tank
is in fact available. While I realize how important it is to some people
to only use 30 year old parts on their Triumphs, I think some parts are
important enough that modern manufactured replacements are a good bet.
All the best.
