you could have painted it red oxide, would have looked that bit nicer than black that's my personal opinion anywaypistolpete61 wrote:Yeh the fuel tank had to be painted cause it had so many holes in the dam thing it was like a pepper pot and the divider inside it had rotted awaymatt86 wrote:also the fuel tank looks odd being black as should be galvanised mate but sounds like im picking holes but dont mean that being nasty bud .
