I think for the effort/time/money, you are probably better off getting a new one if you can . . .

Yes but the A-Body tanks all differ from original. 
I have seen this company before but know nothing about it.

A body ??? OP did not mention car in his original post . . .and yes, that is true there are differences between repop and original. And some original's are not repopped (try getting a 76 F body ??? - at least 10 yrs ago there were no good repopped tanks) . . .

Yes it's an A body Tank. All the reproduction are not correct. Plus they do not make a 1970 reproduction Tank

Correct, they all copied each other and make them in the style of the early Barracuda tanks, nothing even close to correct for a 70-76 A-body tank. They work, but they look all wrong. It's not just A-body cars either, I recently bought a 67 GTX, thankfully I got an NOS tank with the car, the reproductions are not correct for them either.
