With fuel costing $1.40 a litre and the extra weight, why would you want to? Besides, Holden only have them because they still had metal tanks, unlike Fords!!

A couple of years ago I got quoted somewhere around $950 for a custom made 120L or 150L drop tank. Just head down to your local alluminium welding shop.

Any luck with the drop tank GTHOFAN?
I'd be interested to see what one of these would look like on an E series! Mike
