I need a gas tank if anyone has one. Has anyone ever put a fiberglass patch on a bad metal tank ?

Another good thing I haves used is called Quick Steel, comes in a tube, a gray putty you kneed together and stick on. Drys in about an hour is sandable and paint able and will hold up well, I used in on motor blocks, carburetors and other and stuff on my demolition derby cars.

I used the quick steel on my oil pan on my dirt track car after it got a hole punched in it. I cleaned and degreased the damage spot real good, roughed it with some 80g sandpaper, and applied the quik steel. I ran that oil pan for two yrs like that and it never leaked a drop!

I built a motor cycle block up that had a piece knocked off...did it with JB Weld...
but you can go to the auto parts store and they have a yellow and blue strip of some sort of epoxy kinda looks like strips of clay...just tear off what you need and mix it together and cover the hole...works pretty good...
