I am avoiding vast outlays, I know you can make your own (not enough expertise/equipment), buy an aluminium one (too much) or use a Mini estate/van tank (rocking horse shite). Any other standard car tanks that will fit the Ron C Locost?

I looked at the Triumph Spitfire tank - mild steel but fitted inside the boot hence usually rot free.

It looks the right shape but check the dimensions it was a bit too long for my Stuart Taylor/Aries Motorsport chassis.
