    Was talking to my father-n-law today and we got to talking about his puke tank on his 32, and I made the comment that would like to get one of those. Before I could finish he handed one to me, that came off the car when he bought it :bananaman This one is all stainless except for the cap so should look great for a very long time.

    Got it home and got it mounted, took alittle bit being I have a bum foot but it was nice turning a wrench on the mav.

    I didn't see it before I took the pic but I got alittle anti-freeze on the out side of the puke tank, but the best thing was I didn't have to drill one hole, it bolted right on:clap:

    Those are nice, I picked up one from a vendor at a car show last year. Most any of the street rod parts companies have them.

    Maverick73..........It came off of my father-n-laws 32 three window coupe, it was on there when he bought it. he replaced it with a smaller one and had that one layin around. Couldn't even tell you who's product it is, there is nothing on it that would tell me.


    But I do know that it fits really nice.

    Those are great to have. Have had mine now for 4 years mounted exactly where you put yours. I don't ever have to worry in the summer when it gets warmer that any coolant will get pushed out. They look awsome too.

    Thanks guys, I really like how it turned out myself, and the best part was the price :D:D

    It is not painted it must be just all the black paint reflecting onto it.
    I will get you those dimensions.
