Title: FC Ute Petrol tank Post by: RichFC on October 19, 2012, 11:17:22 AM Gday Guys,
I'm hoping to track down a rust and leak free FC Ute petrol tank ! I have two that are very banged up on the bottom and tops are like swiss cheese. Im hoping someone out there may have a decent tank for sale or point me in the right direction. Are there any repro ones available? Any good repairers in Sydney? Any help would be much appreciated ! Rich. Title: Re: FC Ute Petrol tank Post by: FC427 on October 19, 2012, 11:48:15 AM Rich there is a guy that makes stainless steel ones in QLD just a little deeper......FC427.....

Not sure what i will do yet, Ive still got alot of welding to do before i can even think about installing a tank, but just wanted to throw the subject out there to get some handy hints and/or some options early in the project. Thank you for your prompt reply and i have saved info from oldholden.com for if or when needed. Although i think they are a little pricey but im new to the game, maybe $900 is a fair price ? Anyway its an option nevertheless ! Thanks again. Rich. Title: Re: FC Ute Petrol tank Post by: JOX515 on October 26, 2012, 08:52:10 PM G'day Rich,
I bought one of the stainless tank a while back - fits like a glove, 60 litres instead of 40ish, and looks good as well. Given the lack of good tanks out there, $900.00 is not too bad for a stainless one. I will ask around down here as I have a couple of very clever mates when it comes to making that sort of stuff. Cheers, Graeme Title: Re: FC Ute Petrol tank Post by: RichFC on October 27, 2012, 07:14:50 AM Thanks alot Graeme! Its good to have some options !
