Hi, yes its a glassfibre tank.

I have a Sherpa 350 199 and the tank cap is chromed metal not black plastic that you normally see in photos. Does anyone know what the cap would have been originally on a 350 199 ?

Thanks all for the info. Yes Tim i'm getting back into it, better late than never!!

Hi, i have what i think is a Sammy Miller glass fibre replacement Sherpa tank for a 199. Someone said they knew it was a SM tank because it has no recesses for the round Bultaco Stickers. I have 3 questions - Is it ok to paint a glass fibre tank? If ok to paint what is the Red colour used on 199's? Is it ok to spray laquer over the top of the decals? Cheers

I need a new tank for the Sherpa T 199 i'm restoring. Have looked at the plastic tanks that Bultacouk sell which are in a matt finish. Were the tanks originally in a matt finish, or should i spray the tank to a gloss finish?
