No one sells new gastanks anymore. I've seen them in the Veng catalog in the past but that's all. Veng is out of business and Klokkerholm bought out the tooling and inventory but I suspect they don't make them. At least no one imports them from europe that I've heard of.

Call Joe at bustedbus.com or visit the local junkyard. Refurbishing a tank is something everyone has to do eventually.

I have a perfect rust free tank from a '74 just sitting around if you need one...and I have found brand new tanks...I forget where, I looked for one over the winter for my '79 and I did find some, but they are very expensive... If you are interested in the tank I have....VWLoverz92999@aol.com

I'd love to know where. Do you even vaguely remember?

I've seen Genuine VW Mexico gastanks for 68-74 beetles but not a bus.
