Contaminated gas tanks



I looked inside the gas tank on the '78 Audi Fox last night and noticed 
what looked like a lot of rust sitting on the bottom of the tank.  I was 
wondering what I could/should do to remedy the situation.  I doubt it 
would be possible to find a replacement tank for such an old car, and 
I've even kicked around the idea of getting rid of the "drop in" tank 
and replacing it with one from a newer 4k that sits between the rear 
wheels and behind the back seat.  I realize that is folly for such an 
old and worthless car, so I figured I'd see what I can do with the exis-
ting tank.  After I drain the tank are there products that can clean the 
loose corrosion out?

TIA!
