Glad it came out more or less as expected. The square of felt on my 1929 Briggs Body cabriolet was tar impregnated and just took time to slowly pry it loose. Mine looked brand new on top. Any such leaky tank from one of these cars would be very desirable to a hot rodder who would likely be cutting the bottom out of a good tank. You might be able to trade yours for a better non-leaking tank using the HAMB classifieds. All 1928-9 tanks are interchangeable to the best of my knowledge.
