Looking at the picture from inside the tank. It almost looks like there is still zinc/tin plating on the inside. The rust/shellac/gunk is almost a layer that is coating everything as opposed to rust that is eating into the metal.

Now that is the bottom of the tank that was still covered with fuel. So not sure what the rest of the inside of the tank looks like. I guess I could put some chain, bolts and nut in the tank and rattle them around to see what I can break loose.

I am concerned that I can't get a piece of welding rod all the way through the pickup tube. Is there any type of tight elbow or screen at the end of the tube that could be blocking the welding rod rod?
