Getting it to flatted white primer is more work then basecoats, graphics and clearcoat, unfortunately it is often difficult to know how well it has been done.
The ELR and J3 tanks have the petcock in a different position to the more common GPz B series tanks.
The tank in my avatar was from a smashed up bike, the extra work getting it straight would be cheaper paying top dollar for something really good to start with.

Even if it's not an actual ELR tank it's still worth $200 or so.

Yep, an ELR/SBR fuel tank...fairly uncommon...don't sell short on eBay if don't get any immediate bites.

GPz11 etc...lots of these running on carbs now. Also z1000J kz1000j z1100R z 1100R kz1100R etc... think every permutation of searches that might fit the title.
Also plenty of good pics showing also the inside of the tank, tank badge area (common water trap rust spot) . You can remove the tank sender unit and sell it seperately, with the cap and tap and take pics on the inside. With old bike parts the value is all in the condition.
If it really is four aces then ask for top money buy it now, an imperfect NOS ELR seat sold for over £600 on ebay UK a while ago.
