   Easy, Just cut the bottom or bottoms below the seam, spot weld a band like in my picture to hold the edges flush with the inside of the top and weld below the seam. After welding make sure you use a tank liner kit while the inside is still sanded clean. That will take care of any pin holes in your weld if you happen to get any. The band around the inside gives you a thicker metal to weld which will helps with keeping from burning thru.

	Thanks Dick I see. I see. When you do it it looks easy. I have two grown boys that are expert welders. They take jobs from everybody and anybody but me. They act like my money is no good. I deeded both of them 7 acres to build on so it's not like they need gas money to drive down to my shop. Now, if it was my wifes tractor that needed a gas tank they would be fightin over who gets the job.

	It may be possible that some dies, etc are stored by AGCO in a salt mine somewhere in Kansas. I do not know how you can find out. They may have been destroyed by now.
