WTB - fuel tank

[Christopher]

Looking for a fuel tank (with no rust) for my 74 late model csi, preferably in UK / Europe

Let me know if you've got one. Thanks

Buy a brand new one.

I bought a new one from W&N.

Of course, you can get a stainless steel one here from @alprada70 , which I'm sure he can ship to you from Columbia.

Still searching for an vgc used or new fuel tank for my late csi. W&N have no stock, nor a date when they hope to restock, and I understand @alprada70 isn't yet in a position to proceed with production.

....from time to time they pop up, I will keep my eyes open.
So it should be the version mounted from below, right?

Yes, mounted from below with the fixed one piece filler neck and the screwed in (with bolts) sender unit

Thanks for the suggestions Dlc and Hans - both tanks are similar, but not exact unfortunately.

My car doesn't have the bajonett fitting (for a 'twist in' suction device) but requires drilled holes for screw mounting. There are subtle differences between the different tanks for the coupe throughout the range.
