Took Avanti out of its hibernation. Coolant tank is leaking at top seams. Does anyone sell replacement tanks?

Everybody seems to replace them with an aftermarket inline filler, and an horrendously ugly plastic overflow bottle. IMHO this looks cheap, and is on par with painting everything under the hood black. A good radiator shop can re-solder yours.
An aluminum one could be TIG welded up, and would be nice. At least get a decent overflow catch can rather than that Walmart plastic junk, with the mayonaise jar lid!Bez Auto Alchemy

I had an older one replaced by a PO that came with my car....but I donated it to the Avanti 0001 restoration project. They had two and between them they said they could make one good one.
If they're going to that effort, I'd say that they are not being reproduced. I don't know how rare they really are.
When in doubt, call Jon Myer..740-674-489763 Avanti R1 2788
