Wanted Liquifire or Cyclone Gas Tank

Post by jdsledsrgr8 »

Looking for a good gas tank from either a early Liquifire or Cyclone (I believe they were the same but I could be wrong). Critical is the open space on the bottom to let the heat exchange tubes run through. Does not have to be NOS but does have to be in good shape (i.e not all weathered from sitting outside for 30 years).

Thanks for the help

Matt, keep in mind that 78 was different than 76-77. Had a "glove box" and was a little....higher???? lower??? the difference was the seat height. Probably have a 78 LF if you're interested. Trust me you can take a "weathered" one and make look like new, not a problem. Especially if you're an old used car salesman :lol22:

Thanks Don for the insight. Then I am only interested in a 76 or 77 model gas tank. The one I just took off of a liquifire was really bad.
