fuel tanks group buy
 

I've been toying with this idea for about 8 months and I've now got the means to do it. Would any body be interested in a 0.8-1mm mild steel fuel tank fitted with a new sierra sender unit with a one way non return vent , fully leak tested to fit either the book rear tub or the SSC GRP one? The sierra unit feeds and returns from the top and should be just plug and play if using the sierra clocks. All tanks will be bent to shape in one piece with 2 baffles with a 45-50mm fill hole and every part will be TIG welded.
If there is enough interest I'll do two sizes ie short run and longer range in both book size and GRP. Price will depend on orders but should be around £70-90.
Please don't start the ali Vs steel debate we all know the pros and cons of both either you are interested or you are not , I can do ali tanks they will be £300 each.
There will be no minium order with this as every thing will be done in house although the more orders there are the cheaper they will become.

Problem solved
 

Great I'm in for a big one:)

Sounds like a good idea Phil, there's a lot of people struggle in locating fuel tanks for the roadster and to fit them with the sender is a helpful move.

All the Best......Andrew

I recently spent a fair amount of time researching fuel tank suppliers and I was consistantly told not to use Mild steel as it rusts most of the suppliers I talked to recommended Stainless or Ally only

Mild steel does indeed rust but I made my own tank from mild steel 2 years ago now and its still like new

The sheet was very clean though and the exterior was powder coated

I had the sender out a couple of weeks ago and the inside is looking good

Ally tanks definately are more appropriate than steel but they can be costly in comparison, steel does the job if done correctly just like it does in lots of production cars that see more miles and winter months than our roadsters ever will!
