NEED:

Fuel Tank, M151A1. Any condition, prefer something I can drop in and use immediately.

Thanks, everyone!

The pre emissions tanks are getting hard to find and expensive, are you planning on going back with the in-tank pump?, if not, you can convert to an emissions tank with just a little work.

I'm planning on taking the shortest route to making the thing run. I dug and dug through the slew of garbage that came with the rig when I bought it, and a fuel tank was not among the piles. Whatever will hold fuel and accept minimum plumbing to make the thing drive at least 35MPH.

No sir, much harder to come by. It’s an emissions tank, so I’ll be making it work.
