There are different schools of thought on this (like so many things
resto-related). Some people in hot climates paint their tanks silver or even
white to deflect heat. Black will of course absorb heat. I don't know how
they came from the factory, but my guess is that if the car was undercoated,
the tank was too. My other guess is that if the car was not undercoated the
tank was galvanized, which you can still have done.
See what the rest of the group says, but I figured I'd take a stab at it
since nobody else has replied yet.

As I wait for my new tank and straps to arrive, I'm still considering
whether I should "coat" my new tank and if so, what to user. My current
tank was painted black by the previous owner, while I've seen tanks on
other cars that have been undercoated.
Were tanks on cars coming from the factory painted or undercoated or were
they left uncovered?
Anyone have any recommendations on which way to go?
