I am in need of a new gas tank(don't ask why ).

I can make any year work.

Thanks

I'd like your old one ... dont ask why ... 
Cool.

Please tell me you have a super-secret plan to develop aftermarket gas tanks for the GS500 that do not weigh a jillion pounds.

I am working on and failing at developing a gas tank that does not have the crap pockets. I destroyed one already, there is one more that has rust in that area, and that was what killed the previous one ... Crap pockets being rusted = bad, even if you're cutting off the crap pockets. Go figure.
Yea cant weld to rust. that's why.
Cool.

I have 2 that I will sell. I know one (blue 9x) needs to be cleaned. The other (yellow 94) should still be in good shape. It had some minor rust speckles inside it. I will try to get pics and price tonight.

Yea ... I'll take the cheaper one ... how much ... and dented ? if so, how bad.
Cool.

My post was directed to SmithvilleFlats, the originator of this thread. He was the one who posted wanting a tank and has first rights.

D - I'll take the one he doesn't and dont need no por 15, never touch the stuff ... 
Cool.

I won't be taking the blue one, so it's free for Buddha.

Not sure yet on the other, I need to chase some rabbit trails.

Your call D, I can wait for him to decide on the other one too ... He dont want that, I take both.
Cool.
Buddha.

I would need to ship them separately either way.

I'll take the blue one then, send me a guesstimate on shipping, and after you send it and have an exact $, I'll send you the difference.
Cool.
Buddha.

Buddha, do you still do the rust-preventative coatings on tanks?

Also, dgyver and buddha, how much for shipping to 13901?

Yes, I'll do a GS tank for $60, but all other tanks, to be determined on a case by case basis ... $60 minimum.
Cool.
