I second Owen Dyneto on calling Mike Dulinski for a better used tank, then send it to a radiator shop for the Re-Nu process, tell them to go light on the exterior of the tank. While you are at it, given the condition of the tank I would yank the old line out, it could be full of pin holes that will vex you at the least opportune time, and get a fresh fuel pump kit from then-now automotive--think of the fuel system as a chain, only as good as its weakest link. I'll bet dollars to doughnuts that the bottom chamber of your fuel pump is packed with little brown rust particles, so as to resemble a used coffee maker filter basket.
