Nope, Don. That's what my tanks looked like when I first pulled them from the 25. I've refurbished them and coated them with epoxy, and hope to get them back in this weekend.

jesusv,
Looks like you've got it covered. Good luck with the restoration.

inboard fuel tank
 
Here is the sketch I used for my tanks- they came out perfect for my 1976 inboard.
Hope this helps and if you need more detail feel free to pm me. Best of luck.

Thanks aldo i really appreciate your help. Ill let you know how it turns out.

Good luck- You may want to have your builder add some tabs to bolt the tanks to the stringers. The originals were foamed in. current practice is that is no longer the best as it can wick moisture.
