    Well I figured since we can sell non Buick cars in the "Cars for sale" section, then I can sell non Buick parts? And the Jerry Cans are used for fuel storage for our Buicks so with association in mind...

    I have 40, Brand New, never been used NATO Jerry cans made to the original and highest specs, measuring 468 x 345 x 165 mm, (18.425 x 13.58 x 6.496). They hold 20 liters (5.28 gal) of liquids. Fully paint-coated inside and outside, they also have a full, internal breather pipe for splash-proof pouring.
    These are the real deal Jerry Can's that WON'T leak no matter what position you store them in, and dont have that CARB compliant crap.
    These Cans are from my personal collection.

    $70.00 + Shipping per Jerry Can.

    New NATO style spout (high quality flexible steel) sold separately for $9.00 each

    These are brand new NATO Style (pre-ban style) Jerry cans, V-mouth, New Seal, holes for locking pin, NATO style fuel can. The Jerry Can is center spline constructed and is designed to withstand a 10 foot drop full of liquid without leaking.
    This Jerry Can is NOT the CARB junk compliant model. If you have ever tried to use the CARB type fuel cans, then you'll know what a pain they are to use and how much fuel gets spilled in trying to use them.

    This is a BRAND NEW Jerry Can (Manufactured in 2008). I opened the original packaging to verify condition, and then repacked in a stronger box for reshipment.

    Locking pins not included but readily available at any hardware store for cheap.

    Two Colors to choose from, RAL-1000 or RAL-1024.
    This can is special in many ways:
    1) The wall thickness is 0.9-1mm instead of the NATO standard 0.8mm
    2) The outer paint thickness is min. 60 micron instead of standard 20-40 micron
    3) Painted on the inside as well, which means the inner surface will not rust for many years
    4) Our inner paint thickness is min. 20 micron
    5) This can will resist a 3 meter (about 10 feet) drops full of liquid without leaking.
    6) The manufacturer tested to salt water spray and 2 atmospheres pressure successfully and THESE particular NATO Style Jerry Cans are the ONLY models approve by the Israeli military (The Israeli Military operates in some of the most extreme climate conditions of any military)
    7) Powder painted steel jerry cans
    8) Powder painting with FAPROXYD 100 resistant to ethylene.
    9) Material - pressed steel sheets.
    10) Welded on plasma machines.
    11) These Jerry Cans are suitable for:
    U95, Pb95, Pb98 (Gasoline) and Diesel

    Certificates:
    1.DIN 7274 by TUV
    2.UN Numbers
    3.GS/TUV
    These certificates are accepted and recognized by all EU countries, they indicate that the product complies with all the rigid and strict safety requirements.
    This product complies with international standards and was tested to the highest standards and requirements of the Israeli Military

    Im located in Port Orchard, WA and will ship to anywhere in the US and Canadian Only.

    Todd,
    Realize these are new but what "vintage" are they?
    Friend is currently restoring a '48 Willys Jeep into the military equivalent of that year.
    Would these be correct?

    These were made in 2008 and are the current NATO specs Jerry Cans.

    Not knowing the 1948 specs I can't tell you for sure if they will be correct or not, but I suspect they would not be correct.
    I know the American forces used the "screw lids" instead the German style "clamp lid" design.

    Thank you,

    these cans are so cool-
    I don't really have a need, other than the "CARB" Nazis make it so the new ones sold here in CA. are just junk. seroiusly considering buying two since they will most likely outlive me and may come in handy when the Schmidt hits the fan-

    I have to ask- where did the term "Jerry Can" originate? :Dou:
    Jerry

    The term "Jerry Can" originated in WWII by the British.
    The British term of endearment for the Germans was "Gerry"
    So when the British capture German hardware (specifically the fuel cans) they called them Gerry Cans and they were a far superior design then what the Allies were using and so were highly sought after.
    The Allies copied the German made cans and that is how the US came up with it's own version (an inferior version, the screw lid and such sucks) and couldn't leave well enough alone. The British copied them exactly.
    The term Gerry Can evolved to Jerry Can today.

    I hope that answers your question.

    Thank you,

    Hello Race Lutz,

    No problem I will ship them USPS. But I am just about out of nozzles so I can only sell you one at the moment. I plan on getting another order but that won't probably be until late October.
    So if you still want them, two Jerry cans plus one nozzle is $149.00, shipping is $29.19
    So the total shipped to your door will be $178.00 via USPS.

    When you get my check, just send the two jerry cans with the one nozzle. I'll check the link you sent and possibly order another nozzle from them.

    Thanks for your consideration and time.
