    I am in need of a good quality Vacuum Storage tank that mounts on the firewall of my 1972 Buick GS. (see pics)

    The GM part number (shared by most GM brands) is 385076 GRP 9.281 & 9.798

    I am looking for the type pictured below (not the round balloon repo style).

    Please let me know what you have and your price.

    Thanks Vacuum Tank 2.jpg Vacuum Tank.jpg Vacuum Tank 1.jpg

    That looks the same as the one on my '64 Riv. So that also gives you other options. I think it was common on most GM vehicles of the mid 60's & '70's

    Tom,

    I agree, these were widely used by GM (Buick, Olds, Pontiac, etc) all under the same part number.

    I don’t mean to hijack, but I am in the same boat as you, 72 goat herder.

    Anybody else have an AC vacuum tank they’re willing to part with? Like original post, not the round repro, but the one in the pictures above. PM me - thanks for the consideration.

    Bruno, I was referring to the fact that you responded to his request after the part was already shipped. :D

    Thanks all for the notice, but as Rocket Racer mentioned - deal’s done. Love the Buick community for offering up some unused parts.. speaking of, anybody have some 15x8 Buick Rally’s for sale?? Caruso-made? Posted a separate thread but no bites
