Montauk fuel tank replacement

I called them and provided them with the dimensions. When speaking with them they even had suggestions that were perfect. The tank arrived and is installed. 40 gallons now and no leaky fiberglass tank to deal with. This is a no brainer for those want to upgrade their Montauk fuel source. I'll post pics as soon as I figure out how to do it.

Was it the D-1212 and if you don't mind approximate cost per tank. I have two 1974 tanks [ original ] on my montauk that I was going to restore, however your tanks might change my thinking. Cary

I had some questions/issue with aluminum/brass fittings for the tanks - see older thread. I did not get mine painted, although I was tempted to have them painted red. Was expensive to have them painted (ie powder coated). Is there any market for the old original Tempo 12 gallon tanks? I'd like to get rid of mine.
