hmm, i don't think a plastic tank you welded yourself would be high regarding at rego time.... even if it is superior to steel...
Jonny i had forgotten about the zinc chromate coatings... this is often applied to bare steel parts either before painting, or to reduce surface rusting of components prior to sale . it's not really considered a good long term corrosion resistant coating, but it certainly will work for a while.
would probably be the cheapest option.. make up a steel tank, get it chromated, adn then if it dies, use that tank as a pattern to make a good staino one (if the car lasts that long)
