I am new to this forum and would like some good info on the value of this gas tank and please be honest. I know it is somewhere around a 1959 or 1960 and as far as I can tell it has never been used. I purchased a kart about 25 years ago to find out years later it was a Bug kart. I didn't realize the kart's value let alone all the parts I had gotten with it until after I sold it. I put a 5 horse Briggs on it for the kids to use and later sold it for 125.00. The kart had many extra parts with it including 2 Power Products AH81's. These were consecutive serial number Right and Left hand rotation engines with polished recoils and were complete. I was taken buy someone that said they weren't worth much and he only gave me 325.00 for them. So please be honest as I don't want to be taken again.

Gary,

Sadly the vintage karting world has a few members that make their living taking advantage of uninformed people that come to forums like this asking for help and end up getting screwed. Your tank is worth several hundred dollars but could bring as much as $500 so don't take any behind the scenes offers. Put it on ebay and let the market determine the price. I would either start the auction at $300 or use that number as a reserve and I recommend a ten day auction rather than the standard 7.
