I bought a new tank when that happened to me. If your gonna let your car sit for a long period , always keep the tank full of gas . Plus I add Sea Foam to the tank when I let it sit for the winter.

Check with eastwood. They have a liquid lining that goes over rust.

Doesn't POR-15 make some kind of kit for coating the inside of the tank? Maybe Eastwood? I know that someone does. Either way, like 71ChallengeHer said, I'd just get another tank if I were you. Don't deal with the old on when you can get a new one for not all too much, in my opinion.

You can use a sealer kit like this.

or buy a new gas tank.

I bought a new gas tank.

In my opinion, when it comes to rusty gas tanks, just replace it.  A new tank and sending unit is like $250.00.  It's money well spent, unless you like dropping the tank every time you clog up  your fuel lines

Probably easier to go buy a new tank but you could tie it to the big wheel of a tractor. Put some sand and pebbles, nuts and bolts or a piece of chain in it and then go for a drive on the tractor.  After a while stop and clean the sand out and the inside should be shiny as new. Coat the inside and put it back together.

I took mine to a rad/gas tank shop and had it boiled and lined for 80 bucks. Just like new again.

i am just looking for a cheap temporary solution that will let me use this gas tank without having rust give me any problems getting in my engine or clogging up my lines until the winter time when i can get a new one

[The70RT]

It's gonna cost at least 50 bucks from eastwood for the lining....so another 75 you can get a tank. If you live by Todd maybe he will strap it on his tractor if you buy the gas......been hot too better have beer  in other words....buy a new one.

where can i get a tank for $125 everyone  i found was over 200 plus i need all the fuel float and sender and all 

[The70RT]

I seen second gen on ebay for 135.00....i was off by 10. Of course their is shipping. The sender is seperate. I got one last year for 60. So yeah about 200 then. If you have a third gen then?

[71ChallengeHer]

I got mine from Jack's.

[charge it]

I too need a tank who is jacks?

[The70RT]

I did notice there are some 3rd gen ones on eBay. They are higher than 2ed gen though. I got mine from Frank Mitchell 8 years ago and paid almost 200 with shipping. They have went down in price since than. Mine is a MoPar brand though.

$130-$155 on Ebay. http://search.ebay.com/search/search.dll?from=R40&_trksid=m37&satitle=1968+charger+gas+tank&category0=

Personally I'd go with this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1968-1969-1970-DODGE-CHARGER-NEW-GAS-TANK_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ6763QQihZ003QQitemZ130144590906QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Mustangs Unlimited is one of the best companies I've ever dealt with on Ebay. I'm sure the other ones are ok too but I bought my Charger gas tank from them and they are awesome to work with. They flat rate ship anywhere in the US for $22 Almost makes me wish I had a Mustang. Well, not really...

You just don't see this very often on Ebay:

cool thanks.

I haven't heard much good about Jack's. You might want to do a search here and see what you can find before you buy from them.

EDIT** nevermind, I was thinking of Jim's. Carry on.
