Need to replace my the gas tank of Darrin. Anyone with a good lead for this time. My assumption is that it is the same as the HJ.

So .. the one I have has a 1/2 inch of gunk in it.... has lots of pin holes (mostly in the top) that need to be brazed / plugged. The float sensor is in pretty rough shape and will probably no work. So, given that I will probably not be taking the Darrin on any long trips, I am not all that concerned that I know how much gas is in the tank. Wouldn't it be cheaper just to fix the pin holes over buying a NOS or a HJ tank that may have just as many issues?

I mentioned this in another post, but there is a company called Gas Tank Renu that can work miracles with gunked and rusted tanks. The unit in my 54 HJ was a lost cause and they were able to repair the rust and recoat the tank. The work comes with a warranty as well. They don't have locations everywhere...but there may be one close to you.

any good radiator shop relines gas tanks

Most all radiator shops here in Washington will not touch a gas tank for insurance reasons. I have found one shop in Washington State that will help restore gas tanks.

re Washington--obviously too many liberals
