Same tail light but not stock tail light.
Metal stripper was used in the fiberglass tank and it needs to be repaired,opened up which I am in the process of fixing.
I do have a metal tank now that I am repairing, it came with a huge dent and thick rust on the inside.Got the rust out and the dent as well. Mig welded all the holes.Ready to start bondo and then evercoat finish.The tank in the photo is the fiberglass.
I will most likely sell the fiberglass tank when I am confident the metal is all set.

My tail light isn't OEM either , but , it is from the same period .

Looks like you're making good progress on the tank(s) .
I see you're in construction . I was too . But , I never had a mixer that I could re-purpose as a tank tumbler . ;)

Keep us posted .

Pete . :)
