Wanted To Ferry; Ferry tank
Kevin, a member of this very forum, graciously offered his custom ferry tank to me free of charge. The catch is I have to pay shipping from OR to NJ. I had a reasonable amount in my head but when Kevin asked a shipping company for a quote they stated an equivalent of 44 gallons of avgas  For weight of 15 pounds and the dimensions rounded to 44"x30"x20" it's kind of steep. For me at least 
I need this tank for one trip this summer and would gladly give it away to next long hauler for free. I am looking for somebody who goes to S-n-F from Oregon and can bring this tank to FL. I plan to be there on April 5th.
Or give the tank a ride to Ohio somewhere near Dayton I will be in the Museum early May. Or anywhere within 3-5 RV hours from New York City.
This is how the tank looks. Weighs 15 pounds let me know if somebody goes East with empty baggage compartment. Dinner on me
Didn't want to abbreviate it's a family site |

Negative. Need some fittings to run, test fly and it's a bit off the course |

I thought that may be the case.

Vlad,
Try greyhound or amtrak. Have used greyhound before and it was very cheap.

Info
Vlad when you get it rigged etc, post some pics. There are likely lots of us that would love to pull off monster leg one day. Seeing how you do it and how it works is of great interest.
