Could you just mold up some new letters with epoxy, and whittle them with a Dremel? It could be easier than replacing an otherwise good tank. Coat of paint, no-one except you would know the difference. You could even patina the paint so it looked old-timey : )__PRESENT

Cheers,

Do you have pictures of your RD4 engine? I need parts. California is probably too far to be practical. Thanks Mike P.

My cousin made up BEST letters for a 60 and used JB weld for glue with a light bulb inside of the tsnk. The tractor is on the east coast 35 years later and no one is the weiser,
