Up for grabs is another genuine piece of 70's chopper history:  "NAKED EMBRACE" CUSTOM PAINTED MOLDED MUSTANG CHOPPER TANK. Painted by "Shorty"  This is the ultimate garage hanger conversation piece or with some work a tank that will truly make that period correct old chopper build one of a kind!   CONDITION: Please look at all of the supersized pictures and use the zoom feature to make your own final judgement, I have tried to highlight the item from all angles.  Here is the condition as I see it: - Tank is in overall rough but solid shape from plenty of time on an old chopper and then hidden away in a barn.  Old heavy guage steel construction has held up well, but the molding will need attention. Should be able to be put back on the road with careful restoration. - Steel body is in overall good solid shape with no visible dings or dents.  Tank was fully molded into a bike at one time and chipped out (see photos 8-12), molding will need to be repaired.  - The paint has plenty of knicks, chips, scrapes, gas damage, sun fading, and cracking of the lacquer that can be seen in pictures 1-12. - Inside is actually pretty clean (ran out of photo space, message for photo). Inside only needs a good cleanout and then to run a good inline filter (which you should run on any tank regardless). - No gas cap is included. No petcocks included.  Set up to run old style dual petcocks.   FITMENT: - This is a standard GME mustang style aftermarket 1970's tank for a custom chopper. - Please verify on fitment on your end before purchase with your model year/frame, or that you are comfortable with custom fitting to your application.  - I am more than happy to assist with measurements or additional pictures if needed.    SHIPPING: - My shipping price always includes the cost of FULL VALUE INSURANCE and for items over $750 also includes SIGNATURE DELIVERY CONFIRMATION (this requires USPS Express, UPS, or FedEx delivery for International) this is not an option due to the value/rarity of the items I sell and eBay policy, so please be aware when bidding on an item over $750 of the additional cost when shipping internationally (Go to shipping page and choose USPS International Express for the correct pricing estimate on items valued over $750).  -Additionally please be aware that shipping cost also takes into account eBay and PayPal fees as well as packaging, materials, and time to make sure your item is professionally packaged and shipped within 1 business day and arrives to you safe and as pictured.  If you have any questions/issues please feel free to ask, I am also open to working with you to save $ anywhere I can within reason but when working through eBay I will always follow eBay rules/regulations/policies, this is not an option when transacting business on eBay.   *Please look at all of the pictures carefully and message me with any questions or if you would like any additional photos or description of the item.  Please also do your own research if you are looking to make sure your restoration is 100% model year correct as I do my best to research and confirm the exact year(s) for all parts as best I can but make no guarantees.  I also do my best to describe each item in detail and take as many photos as possible, if you are ever unsatisfied with any item and feel anything was misrepresented please let me know and I will do what I can to make you happy.  In the end I'm just another poor guy supporting his own motorcycle addiction* **Foreign Buyer / Overseas Buyer Services- YOUR COMPANY is the buyer to which I am responsible for delivery of the item to, and YOUR COMPANY is responsible to inspect and accept/reject the item as the buyer I am selling it to.  By bidding/purchasing this item on behalf of another buyer you agree that all liability after item reaches your facility is on YOUR COMPANY as a 3rd party buyer service and that once the item is forwarded on from your location to a 3rd party I am released from all eBay buyer protection liability, having completed my duty as the seller in safely delivering the item to the buyer listed on the eBay transaction (YOUR COMPANY).  By forwarding on the item from your location you are by default agreeing that the item was received in acceptable (as pictured/described condition).  It is your job as the forwarding service to ensure the item is received at your location in acceptable condition and is forwarded on safely and reaches its final destination, I can not and will not be held liable for any shipping, damage, or item condition claims once the item has been forwarded on to a 3rd party buyer.  Any issues arising after item has been forwarded to a 3rd party are solely between YOUR COMPANY and YOUR 3rd PARTY BUYER.  BY BIDDING/PURCHASING THIS ITEM YOU HEREBY AGREE TO THESE TERMS**
