[NOBBC] Fuel Tank

[craig murphy]

Better yet (and loads cheaper),  get a POR-15 fuel tank restoration kit. Slosh
the Marine Clean and a handful of old nuts and bolts around for 5 minutes,
followed by the zinc coating and finally POR tank sealant, and it will be good
forever. I restored both of my '65 Cooper S tanks 10 years ago this way, and
they still look brand new inside. They had rust and pin holes in the seams
before the treatment.

I also had all of the local places at the time quote the job, and those who
would do it were way too expensive and charged extra to seal and coat the
tanks after cleaning.
