Need a new fuel tank - '58 Plymouth and '59 Dodge

[WikedPlymouth]

It looks like I need new fuel tanks for my 1958 Plymouth and my 1959 Dodge. I had hoped to use the original tanks as both were clean and rust free inside. The problem was that both had been smashed/dented in the past and has small leaks. I did try JB Tank weld and it worked for a few months but now that it's getting warmer they are both leaking. So, I think it's time to just replace them.

My question, where is the best place for new tanks? It looks like these cars use the same fuel tank. The Plymouth is a 4 door and the Dodge is a 2 door hardtop. I'm also assuming I will need a new gasket for the tank to fill tube.

I've seen them available at Vans Tanks but heard mixed reviews. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks. I did see the ebay listing for Vans and the Vans website. Just heard mixed reviews on them. Anyone have a good experience with them?

Just checked Rockauto.com, nothing there. Sorry.

Wow, prices have gone up on the tanks with shipping. I paid $350. about 2 years ago.

Vans has sales on these tanks every 4 months or so, or on ebay; ''contact seller'' and offer $250.

Tried contacting Vans on ebay. I must have spoken to the grump guy because he said the price was the same whether I order one or 100. I guess I will wait for their next sale. Thanks.
