First off, let me apologize for my ignorance. I bought this tank because I was told it was taken from a CWC Roadmaster. When I tried to fit it to my bicycle, it was just a bit off and won't work. After doing a bit of research, I think it is from a Snyder build Ward's bike (1938?) The tank is nearly perfect, other than the severe fading of the original graphics. Could anyone confirm what this might be for me? I obviously don't have the correct bike for it which stinks!
Thanks

Hey bud, we’ve all been there at some point. Bought something for hundreds of dollars and it didn’t fit. Luckily, you should have no problem selling the tank. Have a pic of your frame?
