Re: TANK STICKER CORVETTE
Drill some starting holes in the empty and rinsed tank and then take a jigsaw/sawzall or tin snips and cut it out leaving a metal margin around the outside. Then you can take the cutout piece and finish the sharp edges on your bench grinder.

Re: TANK STICKER CORVETTE
[ QUOTE ]
The best way is to leave it on the tank and install another tank. Just a opinion.... [/ QUOTE ] There's a good chance the tank has pin holes on the bottom anyway. I hardly ever saw a Corvette tank that didn't have an inch or so of water in the bottom. I had to replace the tank in my '68 and still have it (with the sticker attached) stored above my garage. The car is long gone but much of the stuff I replaced is still around. BTW, Anyone need a complete smog pump and brackets for a '68 427 Corvette?

Re: TANK STICKER CORVETTE
Maybe be off the topic a bit, but if one choses to cut or repair a tank, after it is cleaned out, through in a few pounds of dry ice. That will displace the 02 and may keep you off the local news too.
I have seen some old welders ( like Shoney.  ) use this trick on small aircraft tanks.
