    Does anyone offer a gas tank for a 1966 A100, or is there a close match that anyone has used.

    Have you check with one of those shops that repair them. They can fix even a pretty bad one

    Yup, you can get an aftermarket fuel cell type or fix yours. Reproduction senders are available online as well.

    I found a new sending unit on eBay and am having the tank relined. Thanks for the help.

    Probably nut much use to you, but I fitted a tank from a Reliant Scimitar ( a 60's/70's UK sportscar ).

    It fits perfectly between the chassis rails and the A100 sender fits if you file a wee bit off the circumference of the base.

    I had to relocate the filler neck but that was easy enough after the tank had been cleaned.

    Cheers,

    Hugh
