Fuel Tank

Guys,
I've had to rip open my starboard wing due to a leak in my fuel tank. This is not the first time the wing has been opened and the tank repaired, but I'm hoping it will be the last time. Whoever did it the first time tried to seal it with some kind of epoxy...suffice to say it didn't work. I am going to have it properly welded and pressure tested but it looks like someone threw it off a bloody building. I'd be keen to replace both at some point. So, anyone have a set of tanks that will fit my '48 14-13-3??
Cheers,
Andy

As a reminder to all....when "pressure" testing a fuel tank DO NOT exceed 1 PSI. If you do you run the risk of damaging or destroying the tank.
I use the outlet side of a shop vac to provide pressure. Go around all welds, seams and rosettes with a soft brush dipped into soapy water. bubbles will appear over leaks.
