Hey Joe,
The fuel tank in my 1978 #17 is steel (or iron) – a magnet sticks to it. Do you suppose your aluminum fuel tank represents a developmental change in the line, and if so, does anyone know around what hull number or year?
I wonder, too, which of the two materials averages the longer life expectancy. I’ve known steel tanks to last many decades, if maintained, and black iron to last a century.
