I saw something similar in another thread. I removed it from a donor blazer I picked up and put it in the " gotta take this stuff to the dump when I get around to it" pile. Seen anything like it, anyone?

That looks like the 38 gallon Hickey fuel tank that I have on my Blazer. It should be noted that this exact tank is also currently being made by Northwest Metal Products (NMP).

That's the first design Aero tank, I have that one and the second design tank when they got rid of the thru bolts and went to a side bracket.

Looks like one . I know I wouldn't mind getting the dimensions of it so I could build one out of stainless . If you get a chance to post them that would be huge !
