    I had a custom water tank welded up for our old caravan. I know HDPE can be fuel safe. Could you have a tank welded up that you just drop the old shell over? Similar idea to the plastic boat tank, but this way you get one that properly fits.

    An 80" fuel tank? That's a really BIG fuel tank! Will it fit?



    Sorry, I'll see myself out.

    Thanks all for the tips.

    the guy who did my radiator for me is rebuilding the tank. Just bumped into him and he says it will be done Friday.

    The plan was to keep the top and sides and fabricate a new wrap-around base/front/back sides.

    He is a real craftsman and did a great job on the radiator (see below) so we'll see.

    Not sure what the price is yet!!
