Seriously?

I just went out to my garage to take pictures of just how "rustic" the steel
tank is but found that I threw it away. Seriously. It functions ok, but the
build was of no quality for a restore. I can't believe that Rich Chrysler
would not have an issue with these... There  was not on straight line on the
whole tank. all hand made. Originals have edges manufactured where the sides
meet the body of the tank. His are just welded along the outer edge.

I found the pics I took when I was trying to sell it.

Have a look for yourselves and make the call.
