[Healeys] 3000 Gas Tank

[Chris Dimmock]

Me?
No idea.

I'm just smiling because 14.4 US Gallons = 12 Imperial Gallons.
That's all.

Not sure which tank size was fitted as original. But I'm reasonably confident
it would have been an Imperial gallon measurement..... Probably a nice round
number, like 10, or 12, or 14... Imperial Gallons.....
