new gas tank vs. coating old tank? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I need to either replace my gas tank or boil out and coat my old gas tank. I also have an old locking gas cap in the tank I have to get out (lost the key and had to punch it out 10 or 15 years ago - the base fell into the tank). Pricing to clean and coat the old tank is about $170 here in California. LMC has replacement tanks, brand new and pre coated, for about $200. I'm thinking the new tank is the way to go, what do you guys think? Is the LMC stuff good quality at good prices?
