Longtime no start (FUEL TANK) 200

O.K. Brickboarders I need advise

75 242 B20 4sp w/OD parked in a garage for 15 years, the fuel tank was not drained (the project that never got started). Never found the time or money (married w/children), along the way I picked up a 83 TURBO, which cured my need for speed. Now I want to get this thing fired up and back on the road so I can evaluate it and decide what I'm going to do with it. A coworker told me I'm going to have varnish built up in the tank and I need to drain it,drop it and clean it. I was hoping I could get by with just draining it. Have any of you dealt with this one? Thanks in advance
