Anyone know where I can find a carb tank?

Behind my driver side headlight sits a black tank and the top just says Carb tank! Its cracked in sveral places and overall looks like ****, just wanna get something new looking in its place since this one looks like garbage.

Any help would be great! Im all about chrome so if you know of one that is or has a nice look that would be awsome too!

Thanks

Greg

Charcoal canister. The carb/tank indicates the fittings that are connected to it. It absorbs fuel vapors from the carburetor and fuel tank while the engine is off so that they can be burned later.

Can't help on a replacement other than from a JY. It may be available new and/or you may be able to adapt one from a newer vehicle.
