The 😅 Co-op: It still freaks me out to see this

…………Cutting open all the rusty original fuel tanksYou may say,” we’ll my tanks are fine.”  It’s kinda like Covid 19, you hear of these thousands of infections but you may know one or 2 maybe and maybe you don’t know anyone that has it…………. But many are getting it and many are really sick!  Same here, there are many coaches found to have wasted fuel tanks……are there others out there?  You betcha!

They won’t take them at the scrap yard unless they are cut open.  $2 of metal doesn’t pay that guy to cut them up!If you don’t have a rust issue now be sure to not let Ethanol laced fuel sit in your tanks.  Storing, fill them with hi test fuel and put marine Sta-bil to help keep the tanks dry from water.  If you don’t your tanks will end up in our scrap trailer too!  Yes, we are installing that many new aluminum tanks….. Tanks crapping out is a thing……..

I’m running a little late today, need to get going.  Relate the quantity of tanks we’re installing and know each coach has many other issues in their projects than tanks……yes, that’s how much interest there is in renovating the GMC……go give yours a big hug today……you won’t get sick….you can take your mask off!

See ya tomorrow and thanks for your visit……
