This cost me $3.99 At the local Goodwill Store.

It holds 5 gallons of gas, 1 gallon of water, and several quarts of oil.

Good find! I shop Goodwill often, especially the outlets where everything is sold by the pound. 8-)

Very cool.

This is exactly how I plan to store my gas/oil/water. I'm searching for a properly weathered version to match my car.

This one was free. It matches my Son's roadster and my Tudor perfectly.
The old forums are a gold mine of information.

Great idea Wayne. Wonder how long it will take for that suitcase to age.

I'd like to find one that looks just like that for my weathered 24. I see them like that on eBay but those folks must think they have something personally used by Abraham Lincoln based on the prices they're asking. I'm more interested in something that someone says, "here just take this old thing". These picker shows on TV have everyone convinced that any antique is worth a million dollars.
