'69 Toronado Fuel Tank/Rear Wheel Well Trim needed.

I have recently purchased a well kept '69 Toronado...however, 20 years in storage did not do well for the fuel tank. I'm not finding a repro tank available anywhere but am wondering if someone may have found it possible to adapt a reproduction tank made for a Cutlass, Riviera, or ???? which I am seeing available that appear to have a similar design? Also, looking for one other part...the right rear (passenger side) wheel well trim for the '69.

Thanks in advance for your response.

ron, I took the tank from my 66 to a radiator shop (the old gas ate the tank), and they ended up buying a new tank that had the same shape, but held about 4-5 gallons less and retrofitted it to work. it originally had provisions for an electric pump on the side and they made it so the siphon would sit in the top of the tank. I don't remember what car the new tank was supposedly for though.
