Got this back from Three Auto:

Thank you for being interested in my tank.
I can shipping to the USA.
Must use bank transfer of funds or International Postal Money Order , no foreign credit cards.

Pricing is as follows:
TANK.......................................... 49,800yen
Shipping fee
EMS (Express Mail Service) ... 8,900yen
Total: 58,700 yen (JPN Currency) (approximately $682)

I think that it is cheaper to make the tank in the nearby shop.
Because it is appreciation of the yen now.

Thank you

THREE AUTO

I guess I'll be looking into a shop that can just do the fab work locally. (Honestly, I'd rather keep my money in the states anyway.)

I've done a little bit of research on my own. I think maybe a tank from an '04-up sporty will fit over the dyna backbone. (the backbone is 2.5", I believe.) If this is the case, it could be as easy as getting new mounting tabs fabbed up. Sorry to hear about your medical troubles man, here's to a speedy recovery.

thanks for the well wishes guys , backbone on my 93 is 4 inches wide im using a new /oldstock 79-83 2.4 gallon tank after fabbed i think it will be almost 2.6 gallon because new tunnel is going to be 4 wide by just the depth of the back bone it will just cover the backbone itself with no hang down .im very excited to get her done . did notice tonight with new bars controls cables and 7inch headlight my lowers and trees look awful so after i get some more cash saved up those have to be powdered next lol its never ending!
