Here is progress on fuel tank replacement for the 74' 35II.
Went with 3/16 welded alluminum and electronic (Centroid) fuel sender.
The new tank fit easily in to the original footprint with an additional 18 GA.
I just increased the height by 10" and went from 22GA to 40GA.
Hope this helps anyone that has an old rusted steel tank to replace....
and reluctant to take the PLUNGE !
Happy Sailing
