WTB - Westfield Built Elgin Tank

-

Buster1

Wore out three sets of tires already!
Title says it all. She needs this tank!

Must be the short tank (22" long, doesn't go past seat tube), like in the pics, with 3 "gills" instead of the 3 "V" shaped slots that are more common.

Thanks. Any condition accepted as it will be fully restored to match the Black Elgin.

That hanging tank might be found on some Columbia bikes. What about using a short snap tank as an option, might be easier to find.
 
The good news is that metal clamshell repops are on ebay and since this is a restoration...
The hanging tank above and the embossed tank (41 only attached) are the only tanks that will fit this frame corectly and to my knowledge, Westfield never had a snap tank.

Can admin move this over to the WTB area? Guess it was a holdover from the old combined days.
