Nice work kid! If you are the type thats is a perfectionist and will lose sleep over this then I think you could easily solder it yourself.You will then have to repaint the tank but will have the tank as original which is the real goal in restoration work.You will need a small hand torch and a lead stick and some flux.Dont try to use modern lead free plumbers solder.The thing about solder is its easy to remove any excess.When the radiator shop sees your new paint they are going to suggest they seal it for you[25-50 bucks].Your second pic shows you care and may want to go backwards a bit to do it right.Doing it yourself saves money.You must ensure there are no fumes in the tank.If you need half a lead stick and some flux let me know.Again good workmanship.
