Hi Ken,

I had a very rusty motorcycle tank - got the rough stuff out with some
pieces of chain and shaking it around - then used a gas tank liner apoxy
that sealed everything up - absolutely no rust over 2 years since I did it.
 Forgot the brand of the apoxy liner but you could probably find something
similar online.

I think you could do the same and fix the vanagon tank.

have to get a new fuel tank and parts sent down here. ...
