Got the boat painted! Need some saddle tanks now....

[calereeves]

I'm FINALLY back to working on the boat after about 3 years of not touching it.  The painter finished it up yesterday, so I'll be headed home to pick it up this coming weekend.  I decided I want to go back to a saddle style fuel tank instead of the monster up in the bow.  Any chance somebody around the Houston area has a pair of saddle tanks?  It's a 74 Tahiti.

Thanks!
Cale

Thanks dudes!  The blue is darker than what I wanted, but for the price I told my painter buddy to pick a blue that went with the seats and he could choose the pattern.  I'm definitely happy with how it turned out, can't wait to see it in person this weekend.  Gotta pick up some marine carpet this week so I can start putting it back together as soon as I pick her up!

Thanks!  I'll give you a holler this afternoon after work.  Are they round or angular to fit down in the wells?  Where are you located?

Anybody have a 4-pt rear mount/scatter shield and a flywheel for a BBC?  My dumba$$ left those two key and essential pieces in storage in Oklahoma.  Grrrr.....

Thanks CJ, just saw your post.  A guy on Performanceboats sent me one, got here today.  Only problem now is that the flywheel hits the starter.  I'm headed to the parts store in the morning to try and remedy.
