rusty tank

i pulled the gas tank out of my 82 camaro took the fuel sender out to clean out the gas so i could modify the tank now all my tank mods are done and after i refilled the tank and flushed it out and when it came out it was a light rust orange probably because it sat out empty a little longer than i should have in a humid climate is there an easy way to neutralize the rust and keep the tank good or do i need to get a new one
