Where can I find a new gas tank?

My gas tank is rusting and going through fuel filters faster than my oil filters! I just confirmed the rust after taking apart the filter. Please post sources for new gas tanks.
Thanks

I got lucky at the salvage yard and got one out of a 92 for $30, but the tank itself was a GM replacement and was installed in that car in 94 (probably under recall).

The dealer or resto-catalogs are probably out of the question, since the tanks run upwards of $300 new...

You're probably looking for sort of a small, 3rd-party fuel-tank manufacturer that specializes so they can sell lots for cheap.. right? Only other idea that comes to me is a fuel-cell..
