1927 tank lining

By Alf


I came across these detailed drawings that were given to me by my friend Geoff Morris many years ago; as you can see they show detailed measurements for painting a 1927 petrol tank and oil tank. He had a very original flat tank 16H that I would think he took the measurments from.


-SG- These two photos (above) I received from a friend in Ireland of his April 1926 Model 18 Oil Tank, which is believed to be original.  He confirm the lining sizes etc as the sketches above but points out the top line - behind the filler neck - is slightly different.  Probably depended who was wielding the brush on the day!
