yes, near the Quickcheck. Butler Blvd.

Getting an aluminum one made to match old is going to cost you $100 or so more than a stock one or a stock plastic one but the fittings will be in the exact right spot with the right angle. You won't have to re-route the hoses. I looked at the Moeller plastic tanks and could not find one where the fittings were the same. $100 was worth not having to mess around.

The moeller tank in captpetes thread looks like it would work on my boat. I was finding ones with the fittings angled differently.

Just a thought, If you put in a different aftermarket tank, be sure to have the filler neck on the forward side. Another member put a different tank in with the filler towards the stern and had problems. Gas coming out the vent when planing out, and an air bubble trapped in the tank when refueling that would pressurize and blow fuel back out the vent and filler.

This still looks like a deal to me:

Might just buy it myself.
