If it were possible to obtain supplies to order of stainless or aluminium replacement fuel tanks at somewhere between £300 to £325 would anyone be interested? To put that in perspective, mild steel would be about £200ish.

I personally wouldn't be, even though I'm a bit of a tart- with the care and attention most cars get these days a mild steel tank suitably painted should last a long time- most people are only having to replace original steel tanks after 40+ years.

What Matt said!

Yes, I would definitely be interested.

Agree with matt.. Gil..

I should say... Good quality mild steel ones would be really good though

Did you get any further with this Chris? My latest car has a substantial welded repair on its tank and although it doesn't leak yet I don't know if I would trust it with a full tank of fuel. So I would certainly be interested in a new tank especially if they were built to order could we maybe get a return pipe and a swirl pot added just to future proof things?

No sorry - only you and Borky have showed any interest.

Somewhere in the back of my mind I seem to remember that this was discussed a good few years ago and the consensus was that the MGB tank was the same basic shape but with different filler necks and maybe different sender units. So I wonder what would be involved in modifying one of these tanks to fit the marina. The MGB tank is available new for £110.00.
