Is tin plate material good for a fuel tank replacement?

My cousins car has a bad fuel tank and we were able to source an after market reproduction tank and it is made of tin plate.

is tin plate a good choice for a replacement? i don't want to buy a new tank every few years.

so far I've seen them made out of steel, galvanized steel, Ni Terne steel (I have no idea what that is).

any help would be appreciated.
