Customs Attn: TEXAS Gas tank needed to get home---> 1959 Ranchero

Tuck, roll up thru Nebraska and I will give you the tank out of my 59 Ranch Wagon for that old DeSoto front grill set up. Love that Ranchero bro, glad to see you are ready to rock up the hiway. Best-o-luck bro. ~sololobo~

 

So far so good! Almost home!
My gas guage started to read the way it should about a hour ago!
Still no leaks!
Jb weld rules.
Wish I could post a pic from my phone!

 

Good enough.

 

Yes it does, got me home more than once!

 

I just spoke to Tuck on the phone and he is doing ok and no leaks an the temporary repair he did on the tank. He is in Iowa right now.

 

Wallmart sells boat fuel cells for like 15 bucks that have a threaded outlet for a fuel line, 5 gallon, and have inset spots for tie down straps to hold it....if all else fails.

 

That JB Weld will work as a quick fix but don't expect it to last (as I speak from experience, ha!) Glad you're rolling again pal. As an aside, I got the Rodder's Journal email today and a picture of the Ranch was featured. First TV, now TRJ? Living the life my friend!

 

Good news. Fingers are still crossed.

 

made it home- I'll post pics as soon as I get a nap-
Thanks guys!!!
Tuck

My dad had a chunk of spring go through the tank of his station wagon years ago, made a big hole. He got a couple of packages of that epoxy gas tank sealer mixed it all together to make a big pancake and slapped over the hole. His intension was to buy a new tank for his 10 year old car but the patch held for years and still was there when he junked the car.
