It is probably a manufacturer selling off stock he hasn't managed to sell or someone who was making one for his own car but decided to make a couple of bob by making a couple of extras. I know of a couple of people who did this as aluminium is a lot cheaper when bought in bulk.

Had you not thought this seller may well be making tanks for resale ?

Cant see anything wrong with that,not a bad price either.

well done

I'm a bit of a keen bean bob

Shame the guy didn't put baffles in it tho


JohnN - 20/10/04 at 01:46 PM

Looks exactly the same as the ones Viper makes, in fact the guy was previously selling one on ebay, using Vipers photograph?

Is the seller "rocket" on this forum??


JoelP - 20/10/04 at 07:26 PM

i had assumed it was viper selling them. I'd read his feedback cos i remembered seeing the picture before.

sure it will be ok.

u2u viper and see what he charges, and ask about baffles too!

shiney and similar!:

I wondered how long it would take for this to appear on here,

the first tank he advertised he used my picture of one of my tanks yet claims to have made it himself also has a web site where he advertises all sorts of stuff, wonder how many of those pics are somebody elses work that he is claiming to be his own
the current pic he is using is not one of my tanks just wee poor copy.
