Word of caution, in the salvage yard near my house is a 650 burnt to smithereens. Story is that the owner pulled a dent out of the tank but drilling holes and using a slide hammer. He then bondo'd the holes shut and painted over it. After a while the gas ate through the bondo, leaked fumes into the garage, ignited by the gas water heater, and burnt down the garage.
