Just curious but why the interest in a aluminum gas tank? I think my TR4A is 
supposed to hold 14 gallons. At this point unfortunately, I have not had the 
pleasure of driving the thing anywhere much less to a gas station but would 
aluminum be as safe as steel? I assume that the material thickness would 
have to be quite a bit more for aluminum vs. steel. We have a really good 
materials guy at work.. I think I will ask him and report back.
