I need a green one bad haha. That's all I need to finish my rebuild. I know the company that sells them for $220 got a bad review, the used ones are faded and the covers are out of stock.....any help? Please and thank you.

DC should have covers for the 84/85, I thought it was the 86/87 that they quit making? But maybe I'm wrong

If I wan't so lazy and didn't already have some decent tanks I'd call clark and see if they finally made a new mold

CEET sells the vinyl covers still.. I've had these in the past (red) and they fit and looked great. I have a DC Plastics tank cover on my '84 Tecate now. It looks ok, I bought it for cheap as a blem.. The CEET vinyl covers look much better.. I also have a brand new Clarke tank in white on my shelf that makes a great paperweight.. :D

DC Plastics cover (blem, mind you)

I got a ceet tank cover about 6 months ago and they don't put any decals on them its just green. I hated the way it looked

Doug- You plan on sending your white tank to John at any point to see if he can coat the inside to seal it up?

I need to, the whole mess with that tank has been a huge bummer to say the least.
