Another build thread? Yep, my track-style T

I watch them cut up and reweld gas tanks on shows like American Chopper all the time and wonder how they do them with no leaks. Never been my experience. Maybe if you do it all the time. I've even had ones I repaired and they still needed sloshing compound to seal them up.

Looking good Jim, and glad to hear your Boy is probably going to make Orlando.

They pretty much all use a tank sealer, I have a couple of tanks i've gotten for bikes and they all say to use a sealer. I have a vintage trials bike, the tank had several rust pin holes i took it to a local radiator shop 12 years ago and had it sealed and it's still good today.
