Exclamation WTB: [NSW] petrol tank

I have been having some difficulties with petrol pickup from the pump, and as some of you may know, due to the fact that my astina was sitting for quite some time (approx. 3 years)...
with the petrol cap left off, on inspection of the tank, there is a large amount of rust build up, which i believe is causing the blockage of the pump cradle, causing starvation of fuel

sooo, i am after a second hand petrol tank from a BG astina... just the tank, not the pump!

Would prefer Sydney area, but if you are in NSW and do have one, shoot me a PM, as i don't mind driving to pick it up.

i would go to the wrecking yard to get one, but conveniently, the punch holes in every single one

worst comes to worst i will have to get one of those and weld the hole up.

And this is fairly urgent, if i cannot get one within a month, i will resort to the above.

Cheers,
AzzA

mkid - yeah, illawarra isn't that far away, only an hour. What was the name of the place that had them?
also, will definately give mazford a call, they used to be opposite my dads work, but conveniently, they moved just as i needed parts, but are still pretty close.

tamass323 - will give the other two options a try, but if there is still no luck, then will have to look at your option..
any ideas how much shipping would be???

dapto pick apart is the place
linky here
http://www.daptopickapart.com.au/ (phone number on page)
be aware you will have to take it out yourself (or pay a premium)
cars are all suspended in the air so you should be able to take out no worries

but mazford id ring first since closer for you
ring both and ask how much they reckon
