Roger I have a FREE GAS TANK for you. I just checked it, it has nipples at the corner like you need. The inside is a 
bit rusty but not bad. The top has 2 or 3 soldered spots on it. It should be boiled at Hawkes or your favorite radiator 
place, then lined with KREEM or whatever. It might even be OK as is. It certainly is better than what you have now. I 
can bring it to the next Desert Scouts meeting, isn't it *this* Wednesday?

Sender: the best idea I cant think of is to throw it away, and buy a new one, it's not worth fixing.

I bought one about a year ago from Light Line of Louisiana, it was about $50. Ask for the Oring seal too. There are 
many vendors listed on the Binder Bulletin. I have also bought from Anything Scout in CA.
