          Are you sure that's the welder's serial number and not the engine's? Then, call Miller at 920-734-9821 and see what they say.

              I wondered if it might be 1966 based on reversing the trend on the serial number chart. But I assumed they started it at 1967 for a reason. Guess not.

                    Did they have an owners manual? Current owner manuals have at least a parts list in the back. Plus, there are probably a lot of parts in there that can be cross-refed to standard commercial parts. And there are a number of people here who may be able to help sort it out if you need something. May be some things that are just not replaceable, but there is often a way to make it work.

                        Yes, a gas tank would not be a likely find. Might have to make one.
