Primarily Petroliana Shop Talk Forums Shop Talk Petroliana Forums Showcase and Stories, Petroliana Quart of the Month...The "C's"

Gas Geeks and Quartasaurus Erectuses..This month we will be posting quart cans that begin with the letter C. I have to work a double today so feel free to get the Party started. I will post pictures soon. Thanks in advance for your participation.
--------------------------------------------
Hubba, the Quart Jester

Hubba said that he was pulling a double so I asked my wife if she would post these. Hubba you are doing a great job. So is my wife.
Here are two outboard cans.


This is the hard to get Cincinatti Oil Works Can. The color on this can is outstanding.

Nice motor cycle graphic on this Castrol can.




------------------

Here are some more of the C quarts......
Here is a neat Chevron Aero can along with a Delo 400.



This is a mistake can. The top reads Gulf and the side reads Chevron. A bunch of these came out 5 or 6 years ago. They made banks out of them when they discovered the error.

Scott I'm only ticked cause you got to watch football and have fun posting pictures and I was working on house projects all weekend and never even got to play with my cans or signs.

[This message has been edited by Dwaine Buck (edited 11-05-2003).]

One a day thats all we ask. Oil cans that is Ted Crystal can I almost got.



[This message has been edited by 41150 (edited 11-06-2003).]

Sorry about the crappy photo of this "Cruiser" can. I have already moved it to Oregon, so I can't take a better photo. It has a great Battle ship on the face. The rest of the cans are just a little something extra as it's the only photo I had.

Wouldn't you know I'd find another photo after I'd already posted the crummy one.

A nice quart for Cushman Cycles. Be careful on this quart, someone is reproducing them. I've not had a repro to look at, so they might be marked?

Scott

[This message has been edited by quartcans (edited 11-11-2003).]

I didnt think he would go for that either...nice try though..LOL. I think Rhonda told me years ago they got broke into but they never took any gas and oil items even though the house is stacked full of goodies. She said the thieves must of thought they were nuts with all that "gas junk" around..and nothing of real value..LOL I am glad thieves are stupid. I always likied that story.
