I was wondering if anyone had a good used gas tank (complete w/sending unit) for my 79 ElCamino? I'm in the Los Angeles County (Northern) area. Seems the old one has developed a pinhole and is leaking.

Tried to plug it but I can't pass the pressure test for smog and I'm not 100% that this is the problem... so I'll eliminate one problem at a time.

Appreciate the help.

Some radiator shops used to offer a glass liner for these problems ask about.
I've had them soldered before and it held until I got rid of the car.

I sand blasted the bad spot and applied some JB Weld today. I guess we'll see if it holds.
