Packard Forum Index » V-8 (1955-56)

Anybody know of a source where I can get a new gas tank for a 1955 Caribbean? the one I have is in bad shape and rusty and has already clogged up my carburetor to the extent that I had to rebuild it over again. To avoid the cost I prefer to get a new one as the one I have had been "sort of rebuild" and tested a few years back.
Any help and advice is appreciated!
Thanks, Walter

I thought Kanter was considering re-popping these. Dont know if that ever happened, but 51-56 tanks are all the same.

Find a place the does the Gas Tank-Renu process. It will probably cost you about $300. But it has a lifetime guarantee and they bake on a coating internally and externally that will out last you and the car.

I had the same issues with my tank, and this was the best solution.

Last I heard, a few months ago, the repro 51-56 gas tank project at Kanters was nearly complete. I'd suggest you give them a call and see what the status is.
