    There's a store on eBay (radiator pros or something, search the forum you'll find it) that sells new tanks for like $180+ shipping

    In Vegas too. I found out because i was trying to source one myself.
    Then I stumbled across Amazon selling auto parts like this aftermarket fuel tank that fits my car that's $206 + free ship.

    Junkyard or parts car tank man, they're probably 300+ new vs $50 or free from entusiast parting.
    show us a picture of the gasoline river you have by your house now too ..

    Talk to Levent at Guten Parts and Service. I just bought one from him for my Late model. Also, RockAuto sells a none OEM brand that I hear a lot of SpecE30 guys use.

    Hope you're not in the garage.....be careful of a pilot light on any gas appliances.

    Bummer man, been there before but didn't end up ripping it out like yours did.
    Throw up a picture so we can see how bad the damage is and if it is repairable, short of replacing the whole tank

    so fucked.

    you can JB weld it for a temp patch but you are way better off getting another one.
