Does anyone still have the old hydropneumatic fresh water tank for a 58-61 Shasta Deluxe? If so can I get some measurements?
The tank fits partly below floor line and fastened to the floor by welded tabs.
Length, diameter and tab locations would be great.
Thanks

Those things begin to leak through pin holes that show up as corrosion and it only gets worse. You can't fix it. Ask me how I know that. I would go with a new poly or ABS tank.

The old tank was removed. I was toying with finding or having a pressurized water tank made that would fit the space. Our old 1966 Shasta had a pressurized fresh water system with air pump that worked well.
For our 1958 it has no 12V. We have a plug in for AC to run lights/fridge so I don’t really need 12V to do our minimalist camping.

I replaced one with a poly tank which was I think around 30 or 40 gallons. I also installed a pump because it had a kitchen and a shower and toilet. The trailer was a 1959 Kenskill which I added 12vdc to along with the AC. It's basically a park model trailer so it has no black or gray water tanks. Toilet and other drains all come together to flow out to the sewer connection or a portable roll around tank.

I could go the 12 volt pump with poly tank or get a hydro pneumatic tank to pressurize the system. Has a toilet, shower and sink that needs to be pressurized. Anyone running a pressurized tank system?
