Gas Tank Restoration - Tank RENU

[wrndln]

I had Tank RENU clean and seal the tank on my 28 special coupe. I ask if they could fix the cracked and broken radiator bracket area on the panel on the front of the tank (the part that lines up with the firewall). They said yes, they could. I had taken one the of the brackets off as I could plainly see several cracks emanating from the rivet hole. I did not see that the other bracket area had a couple of small cracks coming from one of the rivet holes as the tank had lots of surface rust on it. The bracket was still riveted in place. When I went to pick up the tank, to my horror, the person that "fixed" the radiator brackets had welded all around the radiator bracket that was still attached to the tank. He said they found a small crack or two and "fixed" it. What a terrible job they did. Functionally, the radiator bracket was solid, but looks extremely bad. I was really mad at the bad job they did. I had to remove the rivets, grind off the welding they did (they ruined the bracket), correctly repair the cracks, reweld the cracks, dress down the welds and reinstall the radiator bracket. I told them I would NEVER have another tank worked on by them. This Tank RENU is/was in Minneapolis, MN.

I think the way Brent does a tank is the only way to go . What he does is true restoration .
