Gas tank restoration

[R68GTO]

Thanks for all the feedback gang. As with everything on this car I would like to retain the original "born with" parts if possible vs doing a "computer restoration" with a bunch of repro parts - even if it means a less than perfect appearance. The rust condition in my photos is on the trunk side of the tank so it would not be seen after install. We'll see how I do on this tank - I can always buy a repop if it turns out like dog$hit.
