Default Gas Tank Question

Does anyone know of a reputable source for a polyethylene gas tank for a '46 Tudor? I've seen steel ones advertised but can't locate a 'poly tank. Any and all info greatly appreciated.

Try Yogi's Street Rod Parts in Iowa. They have them and I think they are made by Tanks. I put one in a 46 about 6 years ago and it fit perfect.

Another vote for Tanks tank. I've been running one in my '40 for 19 years. And the '40 tank holds a couple more gallons than a stock tank, great for trips.

I know most don't like ebay but this is a buy now price not an auction.
I would talk to him first and get some info on where / how it's made. I'm thinking of buying one for my '35
