Default Portable fuel tanks

Not sure if this is the right forum, but have a question.
I'm looking for a good quality 6 gallon portable gas tank for the old (1989) Johnson 20 hp outboard on my small aluminum boat.
There are plenty available but almost all of them have lousy reviews.If only they still made the good old metal tanks of years past.Thanks a lot EPA!
Dont have the space to use a below deck tank, and dont need or want more than six gallon capacity.

Anyone able to recommend a particular brand or have an old metal one in good shape you'd like to sell?

I have a couple of these that i found unused on CL for 60 clams for the pair. Came with Boston Whalers sales afew years ago, i guess. I've been happy with them but fuel gauge design is poor.
Very over-priced @ $100 each...

Thanks for the link Gillie,
Weird, I just found a guy on craigslist advertising old omc tanks .Heck he must have 15 or more of them.Even better he's not far away, and he wants 40.00 dollars each.What a coincidence. Thanks again for the ebay link
