Welcome to the board.
Look on E-bay there is always some on there, do a search on the web, every dune buggy parts supplier has them, I found a dozen places when I was looking for 1.

Dan's Performance Parts

I bought my plastic tank from there. They have a variety of sizes in aluminum and plastic. There's a lot of parts for buggies there.

Here is a pic of my 24X8 aluminum tank, maybe someone else will post some pics of a differant size so you can see what they look like on a odyssey.
I chose this size since I could mount it to the rear bars and not have to fabricate a mount for it.

The spun aluminum tanks raise the center of gravity when mounted to the cage. The 18" tank really only holds 4.5 gallon despite being advertised as 5. You really want to run no more than 4 since the caps leak so bad. It is wider than the roll cage so when you roll over, the tank hits the ground. I tried one years ago as have others I rode with. I went back to a stock tank.
