Thanks for the suggestions on how to fix the swiss cheese 62 Rambler gas tank. I ended up going two ways with this project. Yesterday I got a quart of body filler that is made for filling holes, it has aluminum in it. I have used this stuff in the past, it is harder to work with but supposedly does not crack as easy. I plastered the tank with this filler but the jury is still out. Now, after having a conversation with my sister the car is staying in the family so this changes things. I am getting the car for free so I now have some leeway on what to spend. I found a NOS tank listed on the net so I sent a message and am waiting for a reply.
If I do end up with this tank I will be VERY happy. My goal is to get it safe to drive. Will worry about cosmetics at a later time.
