Default Looking Gas Tank Vendor source

I need a gas tank for my 69 427/435hp car, who is the best vendor? I'm looking for a good price as well as quality. Thanks

Quanta products makes exact replacement tanks for 69 C-3, they are located at http://www.quantaproducts.com/store/...ts.asp?dept=19

The price is $198.00, which is cheaper than I can buy the tank from Autozone.

Their website is a mess, it took me 15 minutes to find the tanks, by going through their main link at http://www.gastanks.com

I have heard good things about Quanta. Also, all the big Vette catalogs sell tanks. I would go to Dr Rebuild. The sending units are still available from GM.
