If tank is steel and indeed has rust inside then it can be sandblasted and recoated, however you'll need a specialized shop for that. Alternatively you can have a race shop build you a so-called fuel cell, these are often aluminum so they will not rust on you.
I looked and could not find any source of aftermarket fuel tanks for your truck, even RockAuto don't seem to have them. But, a company called Team Ford Parts from Las Vegas shows two fuel tank setups:
a) single fuel tank (rear tank?) - 137", 142", 156", 158", and 172" wheel base for $412 (MSRP $554); and 141", 162", 165", 176", 186", 200", and 201" wheel base for $391 (MSRP $525).
b) dual fual tanks (midship tank?) - 141", 162", 165", 176", 186", 200", and 201" wheel base for $588 (MSRP $790)
Call them up, 1-800-791-6436, or e-mail at parts@teamford.com, they sell OEM parts by the way, not aftermarket stuff with questionable quality.
