I need one for a regular GI gas can. Anyone have any ideas as to where I might find one? If you have a rusted out can with a usable cap I could use the cap. Thanks for looking. L2S

L2S- if you have an Army Navy surplus store around, it would be worth a check.

There's one in Reno I think. For now I'll get by with this, but a real GI cap is what I'd like to find.

LOL...I just busted through the thistles to my oil drums and borrowed one of the ones without a lip. I don't have any older types left here.

When I go to the ranch, this weekend, I'll look. I think I have a rusted out can there - with cap.

Thanks for the kind offer, Bruce E. ksfarmer bailed me out with one that is even painted red and rust, just like the Jeep can.
Also thanks to Deflave, even if I did go off track and hurt some feelers.
