I bought this spray tank 20 yrs ago and it was most likely 20+yrs old then. It was an old row crop boom sprayer 30' swath . The cradle was in rough shape 20 yrs ago. I patched to legs on it last weekend but decided yesterday to replace the cradle and rework it some more. I don't know what brand this tank is but I have never seen a tank that has lasted this long. It has some surface deteriorating on ends . It's like a very thin layer has powdered. Trying to decide if I buy a cradle or build one.

Dad bought the spray rig I use some 50 odd years ago. Has a green fiberglass tank still in great shape. Never been stored under cover. Don’t know who made the tank either. Rig under it is Continental Belton.

I’ve got one 14 gal probably about 15 or more years old. Gone through several others since I bought it. One my fault as it slid off the truck bed while going through a creek. Another I had some solution left in it that froze and cracked it one winter. I have more trouble keeping pumps working. I’ve got about 4 tanks I use. One for round up and remedy. One for 2,4-d, one for permethrin, and one for the garden.
