Will the gas tank from a 1949 WC interchange with a
1948? My '48 has several holes, but I have found a
tank from a '49 that is ok. How well do the tank
liner kits work? The original tank is very rusty as
well as having the holes. This was my Dad's tractor
and I learned to farm with it, so it is important
for it to look right as well as run right. Thanks.
 
Only WC tanks that are different are the ones from the early unstyled WCs. All the later ones used the same tank and I also think the tanks on the WD and WD45 are the same. I know I used a tank from a WD on my W speed patrol and it was in fact the same
 
I don't know if the mounts are the same. I've read that they will interchange. If you are going for 100% correct, the WD tank has a dimple in the right side bottom for the throttle or hydraulics (I forget) to clear the tank. There was no WC in 49, the last was made in 48. I epoxied mine because of rust issues. Few rinses with a muriatic acid/water solution, dry and epoxy. Used something blue I got from the local tractor place. I've heard a lot about Red Kote, I'd use that the next time.

the bigest difference that I could se on the WC vs. WD tank feul outlet is on the opposite side,other than that they both fit fine
