some friends that do reproduction items, have a gas tank ready to try in a car

so what they are  looking at is a car to do it to

if anyone would like a new tank under there 63 to 65 riv

and is in wisconsin, they are in waupun

if your car is able to get there

they will do it and make it happen

the main thing they said is a car to make sure everything is right

and the fit is right

you can call me at

OK Greg: Please tell the folks reproducing the First-Gen Riviera tank that a 1960 Buick has the  IDENTICAL tank. Just the angle of the filler neck is a little different. it would really be great to see them offered.  I recently paid $300 for a tank clean-out and epoxy coat.   Mitch

I live in Stevens Point, WI which is 1 1/2 to 2 hours away from Waupun, WI. I have talked to Greg about this. I do not need a gas tank but, might be willing to let them use my car to iron out any fitment issues if no one else steps forward. From conversations on the forum I know how important getting a replacement gas tank on the market is for other 63-65 Riviera owners. If there is someone out there that could benefit more from this please do not hesitate to contact Greg or if a forum member knows someone that doesn't frequent the forum in Wisconsin that could benefit from please let them know.

  IF a '60 tank is readily available that's an EXACT fit, except for the filler neck, WHY go through all of the trouble. Swapping/re-locating filler necks is somewhat easy.    WHERE can you buy '60 tanks???  From who???

Just my thoughts on the subject.

OK Tom: Let me clarify. The 60 tank is identical except for the filler neck angle. The length of the filler neck on a 4829 and 4839 is a few inches longer. I do NOT have  any anything on re-pop tanks, this is why I'm excited. I probably could sell a hundred if they were available at a reasonable price.    Mitch
