That was a CSR tank I got off Ebay for $10.00 Fonzee. I then cut it and formed the sides with 16ga. sheet. It only started rusting after I tried pressure testing it. LOTS OF PINHOLES!! :laugh: Oh well was just toying with the idea.<br><br>Post edited by: bkitchen, at: 2006/04/17 22:09


You still might be able to salvage it. If you can grind down the welds, take it to a radiator shop. They can lead up the rest of the weld and it should fill in the pinholes. They can pressure test it as well.
