I'm not saying you're wrong, but the guy who told me that he paints his gas
tanks white lives in AZ and owns an aerospace engineering company. He
usually knows about these things.

To be a little more accurate, painting something white will cause it to
reflect more LIGHT, not heat. If it reflects more light, it absorbs less
light, hence less heat is created. Black will absorb more light, and more
heat is created.
I don't live in the South, but I have a hard time imaging a gas tank getting
enough sunlight to make a difference between black and silver. Black will
also hide most little imperfections. If there's no one color for
restorations, I'd go black.
