Default new car

I'm looking to buy myself a car. I know someone selling one but theres a hole in the gas tank, so you can only fill upto 1/2 tank till it starts pouring out... I would say thats a pretty large inconvience... how could it be fixed? and for how much?

I was thinking more about some kind of patch work, like fiberglassing it or something... dont want to spend too much, it doesn't have to be the nicest creation on earch, If it works its good enough...

You can weld a plate on it. Just make sure you fill the tank first. Or, if the hole isn't too big, you can weld a spark plug in it, and make sure you groud the plug to your distributor cap. That'll take care of it.

Just fill it up with sawdust, its the poor mans bondo!

Seriously go to a junkyard and buy one there, or get a new one from a dealership. Your choice.

Maybe time to add a fuel cell!
