DOH!

Worked on getting the remaining fuel out of the old tank. Had to scrape a ton of caulking/sealer from the top of the sending unit, then knocked the ring out using a brass punch. Inverted the tank over an old tote. Less than 1/2 gallon was in there. Dumped that into a container that already had a few quarts of old oil. Might be useful to remove an old stump or two later on. I'll leave the old tank outside for a few nights, then wash it out and knock a few holes in it. Then its off to a scrap yard.
Need to remember to paint the new tank before installing it.
I had to cut the strap holding the tank on the front support to remove the plastic shroud. Since the support is rusted mess, I ordered a new one from LMC Truck [$64.61].
RUNNING TOTAL: $4421.45
