Fuel tank supplier

We're just on servicing an irrigation pump, and on cleaning the fuel tank out, find it to be rusty to the point of porous, hence they need to be replaced.
They are slim tanks, sitting either side of the pump, between the wheels.
Rough measurements 4' long, 2'6" high and 10" wide, hold about 35gallon each.

Any suggestions for a supplier? Steel or plastic, I'm not really fussed.

Cheers

Do they have to go in the same place? Could you mount a couple of 45 gallon drums in a frame somewhere instead?

This might be completely off the wall, but might a truck or plant dismantler have something? There is MW Truck spares at Bridlington, A truck tank should have the right pipe connections to suit your engine.
