Are HC estate/saloon fuel tanks the same?

Postby Kat » Tue Apr 17, 2007 5:00 pm

Hi,

If it turns out that the tank's corroded around the filler on Emma ('71 HC estate), would the tank from my '79 4-door saloon fit?

A casual glance underneath suggests they might be the same, I'd welcome confirmation from those with more experience in these matters. :)

Cheers, Kat

As far as I am aware they should be the same if it's the same engine.
OHC and OHV tanks differ but saloon and estate are the same.
