Old Tank for sale

I was cleaning out my basement and found a big box with an old beat up Monster tank in it.  It's a yellow, steel carbie tank with a TPG era logo. I picked it up cheap on a whim years ago on ebay or craigslist (I don't remember which) with thoughts of doing something creative with it.  I haven't had a Monster for years and have no use for it.  It has the cap which is locked, but I don't have a key for it, so I haven't looked inside.  The tank has two major dents.  One just above where the tank would meet the seat and the other on the left side front bottom edge. Other than that it's solid, but scraped up.

I snapped some quick pics that didn't turn out great, but you get the basic idea.  They are here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/95842651@N05/

I'm not sure what these go for these days.  Make me an offer.  I'd love to sell locally and not have to deal with shipping.  If no one here is interested, I'll post it on the main parts wanted board in a week.

Thanks for looking...

UPDATE: I did a little poking around ebay and it appears beat up tanks go for about $120-200.  I want this big box gone, so $75 takes it locally.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.
