Default Tanks

In 1955, the govt. were looking for replacement Jeep fuel tanks. The tanks may have been needed for any type of Jeep - wartime ,CJ or truck, it's not specified.

Iit appears that Dominion Motors, supplied the tanks, but Dominion had, earlier, purchased a number of jeeps from the Disposals Commission .

I've come across a number of cases, where, it seems that, the govt, were buying back Jeep parts from businesses that the govt. had earlier, sold Jeep parts to. Some govt. Departments were using post war built Willys vehicles, so without more information, it's all involving some guesswork.
