Is the gas tank new repo or original? If original what was used to clean its exterior and what finish was applied? Galvanized or polished & cleared or ???

Its a reproduction Darrell. The original was beyond saving. This is the Quanta Products gas tank. I just wiped it down with hot soapy water (any solvent will destroy the slight galvanized look) and then covered it in Boe-Shield after applying the screen printed logo.

Rick, I thought I'd share this with you, not wanting to add any confusion in regards to fuel hose but here's one I discovered from the sender to main line on a '69 B-body built in St. Louis. I wonder if any A-bodies used this style?

What I found interesting was the color of printing is silver when magnified.

Very interesting Shaun, but what i don’t get is how did the fuel move thru the hose with that dag-blamed Phillips head in it?

I have seen those markings before. I just wish I could have found markings on my original hoses.
