The PO had shaved the tank mount off this bike in order to "chopperize" it.
I turned up a bung, tapped and welded it on so I had a mount.
What you see in the picture is what I have to work with, I have never seen an original mount and have no idea how those are supposed to work.
There is a gap between the top of the welded bung and the bottom of the sheet metal mount inside the tank of about 1 inch.
I am not sure how best to mount this tank so it does not crack or split.
I am thinking maybe use a stud and a washer arrangement, maybe foam rubber under and above.....I just dont know and am looking for ideas.

Look at A/B group swinging arm for tank fittings. https://www.draganfly.co.uk/index.php/bsa/bsa/a710--b3133--c101112--m202133/category/958-petrol-tank-mountings
