My tank had a label in the top for Florida Marine Tanks with a stamped model # mine was FMT-32-CC. They found the original drawings. 6-8 weeks to have it made and shipped. Full payment up front. Mine was $586 + $200 to epoxy coat + shipping of about%100. Upgraded from 1/8 inch to 3/16 inch aluminum.
