Smile fuel tanks

For the last 7 years we had a local mechanical contractor shop to build ours. I have drawn up what we wanted and they would built it. Last time Coach took the old tank over and explained what he wanted different. They make them out of aluminum and cost $150 to $225. One for an FFR was a 25.2 gallon tank. The first design would hold 32 gallons so we reduced the height to made the tank smaller.
It helps that the foreman and several of the shop guys are hot rodders. Great guys and have helps us made several parts for our Cobras.
