The real problem is likely the overflow hose in the RF wheel well which is 
broken and has let water into the tank. You can probably clean the tank and 
it will be fine if you fix the broken hose somehow. The correct replacement 
hoses for these are no longer available.

I have good used gas tanks. Any FI tank from mid 68 on will be the same as 
your 73. They would be bulky and hard to ship, however.
