thinking about getting a custom made flat 650 tank as a normal 650 flat wyvale wont fit in my crewcab transit, just too long!
was going to order off that scargill but heard many bad things about him messing people about and seen posts of his tanks splitting or bulging!
this place in oldham is local to me too,has anyone used them?

I know a few have used him on here with good results. Soupy rates him highly too. Think his name is Neil.

Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for.

Can't rate them highly enough.

Even Sir Alex of Gardiner rates them...

Anyone used them?

Neil at EMPF provides an excellent service and I have used him many times for custom fabrications.

In the back my van I still use a hose reel drip tray he made for me about 10 years ago. I also have a custom made pole holder which he made, which bolts to the top of my fitted system.

These tanks really last. I had a custom tank made about 9 years ago for an estate car and it is now on its 4th owner and about its 6th vehicle.

Send him a drawing of what you want and he provides a quote within days and usually fabricates within 3 weeks.

I have always found him good value for what is a very bespoke service. He is also happy to arrange delivery.

Just looked at his page from link given.
Has anyone used any of the trolley designs?
I use a gardiner back pack the latest one and glued one of my signs on, but it still looks like a backpack stuck on a trolley or as a friend put it, looks like a ghost busters pack on a trolley 😂.
Does he only use blue as well do u know?
