Called him.  Doesn’t make them anymore.  Can’t compete with China.  Thank you both.

>> Hi, John.  My project TR3 came with a Spitfire gas tank (I found out after restoring it!).  I was able to source a new one from a guy who built them to specs in Los Angeles.  I've gone through my history of receipts, though, and can't find that one.  Nor can I find him on E-Bay, which is where I seem to remember he advertised.  Since this was about 13 years ago, he may no longer be in business.

>> Hello All,
>> My original TR4A fuel tank has been recoated twice at a local shop. A different product was used the second time. Same problem. Small particles flake off and clog the aftermarket filter, which is before the pump. I’m finished with this tank and am going to replace. I see a couple different tanks from the usual suppliers. One is a single tank for several models, which makes me wonder about fit. Would appreciate comments from anyone with experience with aftermarket tanks.
