2nd tank. Purchased from Spectra through YO. Nice looking, but it's for a Charger.

Last pic tank #3. Note same welded seam as tank #1. Slight fold in shipping, but I could straighten.

To summarize;
- All tanks and thier accessories say Made in Canada on them. All of the grommets/accessories use the same part number. Part numbers on the tanks are very similar (CCR9C, CR9A (Charger), CR9C)
- I believe all the tanks were made by Spectra
- Tank #1 and tank #3 are identical except for the dent and $480.00! . Neither are acceptable, primarily due to the painted finish. Paying $665.00 for a gas tank is bad enough, but it ain't gonna happen for one with a spray bomb silver paint job.
I will keep you all posted in case this helps anyone else.
Cheers, Dave

What a disaster...I need a tank for my '70 as well but now I'm afraid to pull the trigger.
Jeff, I'm going to try goodmark but going to ask about the finish first. They say here they are correct.

Lordco called: Tank #4 will be here tomorrow. They claim it's unpainted and dent free, but I think I'm stuck with the ECS tubes.
I'll let you guys know tomorrow.
