Vellios Oil tank and all accessories

I have decided to sell the Vellios oil tank and all of the lines that go with it. There is absolutely nothing wrong wth the tank. I have decided to go with a factory oil tank and lines for my /6 conversion. I have the tank, the oil filler neck, the lines, the fitting that needs to be welded to the 911 oil cooler, and the fitting that attaches to the
side of the case to adapt it to the AN lines. They were only
installed to check the fit of the holes that I cut for the tank.

The cost new from Pelican's web page is 499.00 for the tank, and another 399.00 for the lines. That totals to 900.00. and it doesn't come with the filler neck, cap, dipstick, or the filter. I am asking 800.00 plus shipping. I will even thow in the new oil filter that comes with the tank.

So that I am being up front and honest, the reason that I do not want to use the Vellios tank is that when I tried to install it, I found that I have to cut a notch in the fender lip and the rocker panel. Due to the fact that I paid a lot of money to have a my steel rocker panels flared to match the factory flares, I feel that cutting them to allow installation of the oil tank is unacceptable. With the factory tank, the lines are routed slightly different, and I don't have to notch the fender and the rocker panel.

If anyone out there in 914 land is doing a /6 conversion and is interested in saving some money, drop me a line.

Pictures are available on request.
