SOLD - Very Good Original Gas Tank 280SL $FREE. Seattle area.
« on: January 27, 2023, 05:10:17 »
Recently removed and replaced due to scale build-up found in fuel pump screen.  Is in very good condition with light surface rust visible in filler neck.  No sign of rust visible elsewhere though there may be some on the inside top - it came from somewhere.  No dents, dings, or scratches.  I’m hopeful that it will work well for someone who can pick it up locally.  Pics to follow shortly.

Now that is a good price..

I really really don't need another spare tank but it sounds like a great opportunity for another Vancouverite to show their wife how our hobby can benifit the "other" half.     

Take a little road trip (2 hours +/-) to the outlet mall and then a romantic dinner at the Tulalip Resort next door.   While she is shopping, picking up the tank would be so easy..... 

And its a vintage car part so no hassle at customs coming back into Canada -  Just remind the Canadian border guards about Tarrif # 9966.00.00 -Duty Free Importation for vintage automobile parts.

Price drop to “free” to a local enthusiast!  It really is in very good condition and is currently in the MB box that my replacement tank came in.  I just don’t have the room or need for it.  Came out of a low mileage car that’s always been garaged.

Hi. If the tank is still available I can pick it up this weekend. I’ll be in Seattle and can come to Everett on Sunday early to mid PM. Thanks. Don

Hi. I saw that there is another interested party. If they really want the tank that’s fine with me. It was just going to be a backup for me. Thanks

Would you consider shipping at this point?

Would you be able to remove the filter from the bottom and take a pic of it and a pic through that hole at the top side of the tank?

Thanks!

Thanks Rodd but recent inquiries to the ad seem to have renewed local interest. 
All the best, Dave
