remove tank & clean it with Aquaklean concentrate by k.b.s. coatings. Dilute with hot water..1:1 ratio. Let soak &/or repeat if necessary for a real dirty tank.
Continue w/metal prep and Gold Standard tank sealer if tank is rusted or leaking.

It can be done but if you are restoring this car I would suggest just getting a new tank for it, they are less than $200 and I'm sure after 42 yrs. there is a lot of junk built up in that tank, while you are at it just order a new fuel sending unit for the tank also.

methyl hydrate works great for cleaning varnish and sludge build up inside the tank

Just stand back and throw matches at it. Or give it sugar. It runs on horsepwer, right? And horsies love sugar, right? Sorry, maybe it wouldn't hurt to shut my mouth for five seconds.
