I finally found someone who will work on restoring my 200sx here in Norman, Oklahoma but it is so old Nissan said they didn't carry a gas tank for it. Does anyone know what I can do about getting one somewhere somehow?

Does anyone here own a 1980 200 sx?

Please email me at [email protected]

Thanks

I had to send my fuel tank off to PA to (I think) Fuel Tank Renu. They cut it apart, gutted it, put a spray liner in and welded it back together. Cost almost $400 with shipping back and forth.Now I need AC stuff. Control levers, heat exchange and heat box. Hope I got that right. It is currently 108 degrees here in sunny Norman, Oklahoma, USA and I must have AC!! Otherwise, I have a very expensive lawn ornament! I am sending web sites/addresses to the shop that is working on my car. So if you know of any place that will pull the bits I need and send them to him please email me.

My mechanic is tired of having my car. (since Nov. 2005) He is sick of trying to find parts for it. He wants me to pay for it and take it away. If I pick it up I KNOW he will not take it back and finish the AC. Need the right parts right away. His boss, the owner, didn't want him to take my car on in the first place, but he took one look at me and saw dollars signs!! LOL ; )

email me at <[email protected]> if you can help a girl out.

Thanks for the offer to pull a tank for me but my mechanic said that they wouldn't be in any better shape than my own old one.

Inside and outside in rough shape right now. I had hoped to have enough money to get all of it done with me doing what I could myself with the interior but he is using ALL my alloted moneys for the repairs. So no pics to post (I don't want pity!! LOL).

I haven't worked on a car engine since I blew the head on my family's VW when I was a teenager (most of you guys weren't born yet, I'm guessin'!)

Thanks,Susie
