Aluminum belly tank

I have access to an all aluminum belly tank that is appx. 13.5 feet long and 25 inches in diameter at the widest part. The tank is three pieces. It has a nose, mid section and a tail. I was wondering would it be worth my time to try and sell it to someone who wanted it for a salt racer or would I be better off just s****ing it?
I have no idea if this tank is desirable for a racer and do not want to waste my time trying to sell it if it is better suited for s****. Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks.

 

Some guys would want it just to hang in the rafters in the shop. Don't s**** it as someone will probably be trying to chase you down before the end of the day.

 

You should be able to get more than s**** price for something like that.

 

Yeah, DON'T s**** it.
I frequent a s**** yard here in town and see qiute a bit of good material being junked.
I pick up a Model A frame, and a frame and lower casing/trans for a 59 Indian Chief.
I sold both for 250 ea. last week at our swap meet. I paid 35 ea for them.
People need this stuff for projects.
Sell don't s****, put it in the cl***ifieds.

 

Post up some pictures!

 

post up some pics man id like to see it

 

If I do not have to work Monday I will be going to pick it up, just as soon as I can get it on the trailer I will get some pics of it and get them posted. I am curious as to what type of aircraft it came from. From what I have read about them today I know it is not from a P-38, the guy I got it from has no idea what it is from.

I am pretty sure I will not be s****ing it.

 

i went with a buddy to "the big 3" swap meet a few years ago.we brought one of those belly tanks.we took it off the trailer and started to walk around,didnt get very far and a guy walked up and bought them for around $1700 bucks.

 

We just got back in from picking this up. It's just held together with a ratchet strap for now, I wanted to get some pics of it up and see if anyone knows what it was from.

I have done a little research and I think it could be from either a F4 or F86, anyone know for sure? Also what this may be worth? If I try to sell it I don't want to price it to low or even to high.

Thanks,
Dude

It's a little slim for a race car.
If it's in three pieces, I'd be interested in getting the nose cone and tail section though.

Be a good size for small driver and inline or motorcycle motor.

 

Brad, for now I would like to keep all three pieces together but, if I decide to split it up I will keep you in mind.
