I'm wondering if that's just a "case" to protect the tank. Servicing it would mean dropping it out the bottom.
I don't know of any manufacturer making heavy metal gas tanks like the one in the pictures; remember "off the shelf parts".

I dropped the tank in my 06 Grand Caravan. I could have swore it was metal powder coated on the inside and then a plastic like coating on the outside.

The plastics available today would have greater resistance to road salt and other denting/corroding elements.
