Does anybody have any idea what a 1950-53 Bug gastank with the reservevalve and sediment bowl in excellent condition is worth?
Let me know please.

I would have to say, no more than 250.00, as i just purchased one that is pristine, with sediment bowl, and gas cap, for 250.00 shipped to me. The inside was restored, with no dents what so ever....Hope this helps you |

Wouldn't an original be worth more? _________________ I have a61 Ragtop and a 69 Ghia Coupe |

Would you run a 50yr old gas part/ w rubber bushings in your race car? of course it's worth more, but who's going to look under your gas tank and say "damn that's OG" I'd rather be safe and have an exact looking reproduction that won't leak gas all over my pan, paint and leave me stranded on the side of the road when it fails. _________________ I own a copy of "The Car of the Century" by Garwood.
