All,
I am working through phase two of my ‘77 24’ Spectra restoration project. Looking for advice and resource for fuel tanks.
I have cut open the original glass tanks to inspect and am now going to convert to new aluminum as many have done.
Questions:
1- do you cut out the whole old glass tank and supports, or use some of the molded in glass as attachments for the new aluminum?
2- does anyone have a source or drawings/ specs for what new tanks should be
3- the originals did not have vents nor sending units. Are vents needed with the original cast vented caps? What sending units have been used if any?
4- any other thoughts, ideas, or things to consider?
Thanks Lance
