1971 Datsun 240Z upon inspection with a bore scope can see lots of rust inside my gas tank Wondering if someone can tell me where I can get a new tank.

S30.World

Not sure where you are located, but I have a very clean tank out of a 72 240z that I will not be using. Located in Northwest Ohio. Feel free to message me if interested.

So I emailed with Chris at S 30.world.

He has a tank for me but it’s 695+ $160 shipping plus $435 tariff.

he also told me that sometime in January, they will be establishing a warehouse in Los Angeles. That way we save the tariff and the freight from the Netherlands.

I’m interested in your used tank. I’m in San Jose California.

I remember 30 years ago the fuel tank in my 1956 GMC truck I had resealed, but I’m not sure that those kind of shops are even still around because of the chemicals in the EPA restrictions.

My Z is 54 years old and from what I could tell, which, of course is limited with the Bore scope, it’s very rusted

I just inherited an 08/70 series 1 Fuel tank. it looks like its in good condtion if anyone is interest. I will scope it later to see internal condition.

@CB Garrett Consider getting the tank refurbished, I just had mine done by a radiator repair shop and mine looked pretty nasty.

I’ll be able to pick mine up Monday and it will cost almost half a new one. I can post pics then if you want

Thanks Zed Head for the heads up! But my car has a clean good original tank.. i only need some energy to fix the new rubber fuellines and the engine IN the car.. My health does not let me do this and i got some other chores to do.. no hurry with the 280zx..

Hello,

I've received a nice new fuel tank from S30 world. Now I'm looking for a new sending unit for that tank. I also need the four rubber pads that I can't seem to get from Chris at S30. Any direction you can point me will be appreciated
