Lucky find

[rob w]

Sorry if this seems pretentious. I'm just so thrilled to have found these, and this would be the given mountain top to shout from.
Guess you never know what's still out there. I've NEVER heard anyone before refer to these as "Homerlite", never even heard that word before.
I always thought Wassell made them.

2) NOS in box. 1.9 gal Hi-Point alloy tanks

Gary, It never hurts to ask, but I already have plans for both, and intend to keep them for my own.
Paul, looking forward to seeing you real soon in Athens.

I'm as interested in how you found them as I am in the tanks!! What's the story behind them? I an not familiar with the name either.
  Type at you later,

I'm glad Bob found them and I know they are desired by a lot of people but I have never cared for the aluminum tanks.

I can make out "A.J. Homer & Sons Ltd." on the box.
They were the manufacturer/supplier for Wassell???

BTW, great score. Definite concours material.
We can restore all we want, but given the nature and fragility of these tanks, they will NEVER look like these examples.
Very cool, and yes we would all be fascinated to hear the back story.

It was quite easy, I found them on ebay.
Aluminum can not be destroyed by ethanol gas, and will never rust. Plus when polished, you will always have a mirror when on the track, or trail, so you can do your hair, or whatever...

Nice find Rob.
