Aluminum Fuel Tank Manufacture
 
I've been doing some searching and I came across this company that makes aluminum tanks, Boyd Welding in Ocala, FL. It appears these guys have done many types and many tanks. Prices look fairly reasonable also. They do make a few Factory 5 tanks already. They also sell tank parts. Check out their gallery.

I have attached a .jpg file showing the Acton tank in my CCX. I have also included a photo of the back of the car where you can just see the bottom of the tank peeking out.

I agree with Mongoose930 and 1985 CCX comments regarding Acton's aluminum and stainless steel fuel tanks - by far the best I've seen. I purchased one of Acton's stainless steel tanks for my car, and it looks great.

No complaints...George

Nick Acton made my tank and I love it. I no longer have to stop 3 times a day for fuel. :eek:

Nick's products are all very high quality. He would be my first choice.

I bought one of Nick's gems and increased my driving range substantially! :3DSMILE:[IMG]

His tank is on the left in the photo. The street tank that originally came with my car is on the right.
