=C2=A0 =C2=A0Thanks to all for the responses on the gas tank coating. =C2=
=A0Interestingly, the feedback was both pro and con on whether to do the co=
ating. =C2=A0The first recommendation was to get rid of the old Moss coatin=
g, which I will do. =C2=A0My other thoughts: =C2=A0the car last had gas in =
the tank when it was last on the road in '68. =C2=A0So it was dry for about=
 16 years before it went through the RediStrip cleaning process (in Santa A=
na, CA...long gone). =C2=A0Since the tank had never leaked before, and wasn=
't used for years, I'm thinking that I won't coat it for now. =C2=A0If I de=
velop a pinhole leak in the future I'll coat it then. =C2=A0Got some excell=
ent recommendations on how to do that.

=C2=A0 =C2=A0Thanks again for all the suggestions.Wayne
