Howdy,

I’m looking for the Boyco running board mounting hardware for three cans of the same standard size !!!

Just saw today at Hershey,,,,, at a Rolls Royce booth, 3 Boyco cans, no mounting bracket, $1,000.00. 3 no name cans with the mounting bracket $1,500.00. Let me know if you want me to pick them up for you!!!

There are different widths of these. You will likely want to get the ones that fit properly on the T running board. The wider ones fit poorly and look odd on a T.

You want this style. I " believe" it was called the Boyco Junior set.

Jeffrey, yes, that’s the one

Joe, you might make an offer for Jeffery's set. His just sit inside, unused, on some bookshelves by the looks of the photograph!

…and… You DO NOT WANT any reproduction cans if you actually intend to use them. They leak. Evidently the reproductions had some kind of “fine print” disclosure in their advertising or packaging that said they are not intended for actual use…

I have a set of Boyco cans that are three cans and a large can. I never used them with liquid in them, just for show. They have a carrier and leather strap to hold them in place. You may want to repaint them since I have them red, white, and green, the Hungarian flag colors. I can’t somehow attach the pictures here, I will try later and send them to you if you are interested. You name the price plus shipping.

I have the cans, only wanting hardware to mount them !
I believe the ones I have are the junior set of cans.

Hey Adam, pretty sure the fine print is a liability issue. It's too bad they leak! Selling usable reproduction gas tanks is more than the market can bear. Hence the fine print "For display purposes only "

What I stated about them leaking AND the disclosure they are not for actual use is one and the same. They had that disclosure because they weren’t sealed. I’ve seen several sets of them. THEY WERE NOT PROPERLY SEALED AND IF YOU FILLED THEM THEY LEAKED FROM THE SEAMS. It is a known issue amongst parts dealers. People were buying them then having them soldered or coating with sealer inside if they really wanted to use them.
