Re: [diesel_mercedes] Custom truck gas tank for 123 from 80s or 90s

 

I've seen those come through the San Jose PAP, though not recently.  The ones I saw used up most of the trunk space, not just a corner, used to wonder if the car so equipped had air suspension or some such, had to be a lot of extra weight in the trunk..

My Mercedes mechanic told me that back in the 80s or 90s some outfit was selling aluminum spare trunk gas tanks that fit neatly in the corner of a 123's trunk. They were actually made for the 123's trunk. This would be the ideal 2nd tank for a 123 running on WVO. I'd love to find one of these. Does anyone recall these or have they seen any of them? I can hope I find one in a trunk at a Pick a Part. Or maybe I can start phoning around to the various Mercedes websites that you can call for used parts. I called one of those outfits and another Mercedes yard and they had no idea what I was talking about. I guess I need some talking skills on this part. Can anyone share me some?
