New Fuel Tanks

My fuel tank was taken out on Thursday to fit a new fuel sender.
The inside of the tank shows considerable surface rust. I know you can get a tank cleaned and coated but would prefer to source a new tank or a very good used one.
Does anyone make new tanks? Stainless or aluminium.
Thanks
 
Or find a better used one. I think they're most prone to rust when the car is unused for a long period. I resurrected my P6 after it had been sitting in a garage for 15 years and the tank had a couple of inches of rusty sludge in the bottom which was always going to be a problem. But the tank out of my everyday P6 which I was breaking for spares was perfect.
So if you can find a well used car being scrapped, grab the tank.
 
Are you in Luton? I'm only a few miles away, and have a spare V8 tank if that's of any use?
