    Try tanksinc.com I remember seeing they had tanks for Buicks, but I don't remember what years.

    You might want to check an old Hollander interchange manual, maybe there is something else that will work (different make, model or year). Otherwise you'll have to fab something or find a tank that could be modified to work.

    What exactly is wrong with your tank? It is possible that it might be repairable, if taken to the right place.

    1954 & 1955 Series 40, 60 & 100 will interchange and '54-'55 Series 50 & 70 will interchange, according to Hollander's. Nothing else shows as interchanging.
     
  7. Gas Tank RENU can repair it and its guaranteed for life. Looks like the one nearest you is in Houston. I have used the service on tanks that looked like swiss cheese and they come back leakproof.

    Resurrecting this post on the hopes that maybe there is someone that now carries tanks for the '55 Buick Special. Any new information?
