*mrdana60* · 07-24-2012, 08:58 PM

Got one also. Take 30 bucks but we too far apart :/

DARIO1 · 07-25-2012, 07:38 AM

I have one and you can have it for free!!! It is in good condition except for the center mount tab starting to show signs of rust, deterioration. When I emptied it no particles came out of this tank and I did go through about half a tank of gas before starting my project. here in Maine, it has not had gas in it since February, stored in my garage You must pay shipping. Will anyone even let me ship a gas tank? PM me if you want with how you want to do arrangements; post office, Greyhound, UPS.........

Hi Dario1,

Thanks for the offer. Right now I am going to see if I can one closer to MD. Like you stated, I am not sure we can even ship an used gas tank. I will keep your offer in mind if I don't come up with anything else.

Thank you,
Ray

Tinkermc · 07-25-2012, 09:25 PM

thanks,
Ray

**70STOVEBOLT** · 07-26-2012, 05:26 PM

I have one out of a '72 Longhorn. It's still in the cab right now. I can box it up and ship it but I would need a zip code to get a rate. LMK if interested.

Stovebolt,

My zip is 20781. What kind of shape is your tank in?
thanks,
Ray

**70STOVEBOLT** · 07-27-2012, 11:38 AM

Ray, I will check it out (haven't looked at it in a while) and get you a shipping cost and get back to you as soon as I can.

Thanks,
Mark

**72 Super** · 07-28-2012, 09:39 AM

Realy would like to find a nice one with correct original cap. Would pay to have one shipped if it's possible to ship an used gas tank?

thanks,
Ray

**70STOVEBOLT** · 07-28-2012, 12:00 PM

Ray, this one looks good, I will get you a shipping cost on Monday. Have a good weekend.

Thanks,
Mark

TDBFIXIT · 07-28-2012, 12:15 PM

Are you interested in a tank from a '71 GMC (though it has been removed)? I am in Alexandria, VA, so probably pretty close to you. I could send you a pic if you PM your E-mail Thanks, David

**72 Super** · 07-29-2012, 09:46 AM

TDBFIXIT,

Thanks for the offer, but I am looking for the 72 version only.

thanks,
Ray

Tinkermc · 07-29-2012, 05:41 PM

sorry you were not interested in my 72 GMC still in truck, maybe I can help you some other time with other parts.

Tinkermc,

I asked for you zip in my above post. Is your truck still running?

Thanks,
Ray

rickairbound1 · 07-30-2012, 02:35 PM

Just pulled it out of my 72 C10. Yours for $125.00 + shipping. I am in San Antonio.

Let me know, Rick

Tinkermc · 07-30-2012, 05:04 PM

truck is running 23901

**70STOVEBOLT** · 07-30-2012, 05:09 PM

Ray, shipping on this tank would run $45.00 on UPS. I would like to have $125.00 for the tank, so $170.00 to your door. Also it has what appears to be an original cap.

Thanks,
Mark
