    Default WTB - Steel 72's

    Greetings

    I am looking for 2-3 steel 72's. With or without valve, decent condition. These are going to be used as safety bottles in Indian next fall.

    We are loosing 2-3 aluminum 80's per year to corrosion. It really is quite impressive to see 60-70 pits .040" deep or deeper in the side of a aluminum tank. And then, I am told they are "unsafe to fill", as if thats a big deal or something.

    Anyhow, pm me if you have a couple or one, let me know how much.

    OR, I will trade you 2 badly pitted 80's for each 72. Or gladly pay you Tuesday for a steel 72 today.

    With the price of scrap metals going through the roof, that's probably not a bad deal

    It's bad luck to be superstitious.

    I've got a buddy with a set of 72s doubled up that he's never used. PM sent.

    Scott has about 10 of them around here. He just had some hydro and VIP. Give him a call at 4072478055. I'm sure he can trade you for something. No pitted 80s please. We have enough of those. Cindy

    I've got a couple - one with valve, one w/o. $35 each plus shipping. I'll be up in the Ginnie area, first week in June.
