Got plenty of shops who will do it but the price is steep. I will keep looking. Panshark, I will be trying the rust removal tip this weekend. Let you know how it turns out.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
OK..I know you want to do this right...we all do.Well, as it turns out, removing the tank was not too bad. Unfortunately when I dropped the tank, I heard a loud knocking inside. I got the sender plate off after all the screws sheared off, to find that the tank baffle is loose. I called John at Midwest and he said he could have it repaired and sealed but we are looking at north of $400. Others have quoted $500 to $600. Needless to say, I am crushed.
Going to try my local welding shop to see if they can repair the tank and I can clean and seal it with the with the KBS coating kit like I did my deuce. If not, I may be converting this Sum Bitch to PROPANE.
Sorry, no photos today. You cannot take pictures of gloom and doom.
Fine then!!!Thanks PB. I found the Carter air horn, mounting sleeve and original air cleaner from John and Midwest. Those should be here next week.
