You may not want one that costs less than a new compressor. I can't imagine how weak it would be. The PUMA that rusted out sells for $549 complete with motor and compressor. I paid a little over $400 for the new ASME coded tank alone. I think I got it at Compressor World https://www.compressorworld.com/air-tanks/vertical-with-top-plate/
Depending on your situation you may be better off buying a new $549 dollar compressor every few years. We do live in a disposable economy.
Or you could get a good tank that will outlive you and probably your motor and compressor.
