If anyone is interested,
if you're looking for a factory type decal for your boat, motor or gas tank, go to E bay under Vintage Boat Decals and look for decals made by "Shabestari"
He has scores of boat decals for virtually any make.
I rebuild steel gas tanks when I can find them cheap and re sell them.
Here is a picture of one that I did. The Cruise A Day decal on it came from him , 2 for $10.
I found a Factory picture from 1955 and it showed the exact same decal.20170209_153439.jpg
 
Good info! How do you clean the inside of the tank and do you use an internal sealant? I've watched a vid of a motorcycle tank being done but it seems like a lotta steps. I have a metal Tohatsu tank that doesn't leak, very light spotty internal rust I'd like to rebadge into a Johnson.
 
Awesome, thanks for the tip.

Would love for you to make a thread going into some detail about how you restore the tanks and where you find parts. Have a metal Yamaha tank I was planning on cleaning with electrolysis but haven’t yet tried that.
