I'm on the look out out for an alloy tank, probably going to be a custome jobbie.
Can anyone recommend any decent places to buy one from or any fabricators?
thanks! :)

or SM Fabrications.

he's done a couple of small pieces for me. First class and speedy service, and his welding is superb.

speed didn't kill me, but taxation probably will

I just got one from Owens motorsport fab, Endaf's a helpful guy and really knows what he is doing, also a very reasonable price, well pleased with it.
