Bare metal tank





I decided that I would like to use a bare metal tank on my next build. This tank I purchased for $6 at a garage sale more than a year ago. After spending about four hours getting all the paint and body filler (bog) off, this was how it looked. It has a few dents on the left -side and one slight dent on the right-side. As you can see from the photo, the dent on this side is barely noticable. My intention is to polish it up and then spray it in clear lacquer. Am also working on a new 'crispy' logo to apply to the tank. After a little image searching on google, I ascertained that the tank is from an 80s model Honda XL185S.
