So,
What are the options for oil tanks? New, used? Who sells the new ones, and how much? Rich |

Can I ask why having the oil tank reside in the left quarter is so critical? It would seem to me that it could live virtually anywhere in the car. Front trunk, rear trunk? Would that not take away from the complexity of building a very specificly shaped/sized container to fit in that odd location? Why not put it in the front trunk and add a little weight bias up there? You could shape it anyway you want and probably buy something off the shelf that would work for far less. Just my $.02.
