Oil Tank Question

[Peterroy]

Can anybody tell me what aircraft the oil tank on the right comes from?

Ercoupe had filler neck on left side.

Sully,

Thanks for that. Do the "supports" welded on the side of the one on the right ring any bells? They seem to make this tank unique.

These tanks came as part of a purchase of spare parts I made a couple of year ago. I don't need either one.

The numbers stamped on the neck of the tank on the left suggest it belongs to an A-65 used in an Arouca. There are no numbers stamped on the tank on the right.

If I were to sell these, does anybody know what value I should place on them?

Thanks,

Peter

There are many varieties and the neck support makes a bit of difference. Both of yours appear to have a long standoff. The T-Craft tanks seem to have a very short or tight standoff.
But, if it fits within the cowl it will work. The last left neck tank (Ercoupe) I dealt with, a couple of years ago, sold for $400. The right neck goes upward from there. I've seen asking prices as much as $800.

Thanks, Sully.

I see now you were talking about the supports between the flange and the tank. The 6 qt tank on the O-200 has those supports.
I just recently saw a picture of another with those supports but no information.

Thanks
