I've gotta gas tank for a 550 I need some work done on!!!
« on: December 20, 2005, 03:03:50 PM »
basically, it needs to be POR-15'ed and I want to loose the indents on the sides where the bolt on honda badges were...I cut the strips that were threaded off the sides and trying to remove the spot weld parts i made a teeny tiny tear in the tank near one of the welds...that probably could be brazed closed or simply welded shut it...it would be covered with body filler anyways...can anyone here do this sorta work and would be willing to help a felllow CB'er for low funds???  Let me know as I want to get this thing going before June of '06...

Unless you are willing to pay additional for shipping, you might give a location.
