Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Anyone here have some old artillery shells, a SS Canteen, and two old ammo boxes I can trade you ou

Anyone have an old empty artillery shell casing or two laying around they can sell me or allow me to trade them out of? How about an old Stainless Steel Canteen? Also need two big green surplus ammo cans.

Over the Winter, and hopefully finishing up while I am in Seattle getting my Kidney Transplant (that will be a whole month ordeal....) my motorcycle mechanic and builder (who recieved a pretty decent lazer sighted 45ACP and a bunch of ammo in trade for his work here but this is still mostly a labor of friendship and fun) is finishing up the turbocharger add on and some cosmetic stuff to give my bike ('03 Harley Sportster/Roadster) a WW ll Warbird look to it. We are adding old ammo cans to the rear fender struts for my luggage bags, a SS Canteen for an oil bag for the turbochargers oiling system, some flying tiger teeth and eyes motief, and other touches.

What we would LIKE to do, to really set this bike apart, is use a couple of old artillery shells with about a 2.5-3.5 inch I.D for my exhaust pipe and turbocharger air intake tube.

Era, original caliber, country of origin not terribly important. He will cut, chop, weld as needed to marry the parts together. Only requirement being at least a 2.5 inch ID (3in or more is better)and in not rusted out condition.

Thanks in advance.
