Title: Re: Did anyone on here buy this tank off E-Bay

Those side panels don’t look original or they’ve had work done to then.

They look like fibreglass copies, mine don’t have that weave on the back. Mine are smooth.

I think Graham had a close look at the pics Ken and decided to steer well clear. I think it was a combination of the seller saying it was very rusty on the inside and the carpet tape on the bottom that made him wary. I hope whomever has bought it finds its a good tank though.

I think whoever didn't buy it had a lucky escape.  I have had lots of trouble recently with rusty tanks and those side panels aren't right, fibre glass?
