I am working on a 29 Tudor and I live in Spruce Pine, NC (I know--where the heck is Spruce Pine, NC) Anyone out there know where I can get my gas tank cleaned out??? That isn't a hundred miles away!! Bratton's says take it to a radiator shop but the local shop here won't do it. I am also trying to get color pictures of some 29 Tudors so I can pick a color to paint this car.
 
How bad is the tank? Have you removed the flame screen and looked inside? I've used about 4 gallons of laquer thinner to clean a gas tank. I dumped it in and rocked the car back and forth while it drained into a bucket. I strained it and ran it through again. Do this a few times until the junk quits coming out, then install a strainer screen in the shutoff valve and drive it.
 
I know exactly where you live. I am about 40 miles away from you. (My wife has kinfolk in Grassy Creek)

BTW, I can clean it for you.
