Take the tank and wheel to the metal yard. Totally done.

Frame could be fixxed - couple different ways to do it. Instead of trying to fix those tabs I would cut them off - smooth the surface, weld new complete tabs onto it (tabs cut off a broken frame or something).

Re: Can I Fix This

Re: Can I Fix This

You could try sealing up the tank and filling it with Hot water - then put it in a freezer. When the water freezes it will expand the tank - but that thing is prolly done man....

Re: Can I Fix This

Frame tabs can definetly be welded, and believe it or not, the rim is fixable. There are several places that specialize in straightening wheels. I've seen one about that bad come back straight as an arrow. As for the tank......looks perfect, what did you want to do to it?

Re: Can I Fix This
