This top quality fuel tank is the premium replacement option for all Volkswagen Splitscreen Buses manufactured between 1955 and 1967. Built to the highest standards with superior materials, accurate pressings and flawless welds, this tank offers an exceptional fit that closely matches the original factory specifications—making it the ideal choice for restorations, high-value projects, and long-term reliability.
Unlike budget reproduction tanks, this DTQ (Top Quality) version features a perfectly formed filler neck that aligns directly with the body aperture without bending or modification. The overall construction is noticeably stronger, with cleaner seams and a smoother internal coating that resists corrosion and fuel contamination far better than cheaper alternatives.
Suitable for all applications—daily drivers, show vehicles, and fully restored buses—this tank ensures trouble-free installation and many years of dependable service.
Designed for use with the 60mm fuel cap, as fitted to all mid-1950s to mid-1960s Splitscreen Buses.
