I have some of the Blitz fuel cans. I bought them online from 4 Wheel Drive Hardware.

scepter cans are already next to impossible to get and red ones are even harder. if you find a source in the states please share. and DS Tactical will not ship scepter cans to the states or at least not to me anyway....

Haven't been made in some time.
Looking for Scepter's only.
There were some on eBay awhile back but were already sold.
DST won't ship them to USA.

I have one red can I got a couple years back and since then they became nearly extinct in the US - Unobtainium...
The green or tan ones were made in vast quantities, I suggest you look for those if you want Scepter quality.

*Edit* - I see you are in Portland. Take the drive to BC, buy a load of them and then sell them here. You'll be able to pay for your cans and spouts PLUS your time and gas for the trip

Wanna sell your red one?
PS--There are some on here from CAN who have offered to buy and ship them here. I'm still holding out for red.
Red Scepter Can
Sorry I didn't see this earlier but I ended up putting one on EBay.
I used it once or twice but have since sold my FJ Cruiser and now have a diesel LandCruiser.
Decided to go with a yellow Scepter which were even harder to find. :smiley_drive:

It is in really good shape.

Wow Bob, $137.50 on ebay. I would have never guessed it'd go that high.
Damn, for that price I'd pick up two new red Geri's (anyone ever use those?);

Anyone else have any less expensive red Scepter's up for grabs?

Ah, interesting. A G-Wagen guy I know has had some of these for awhile now. I'll have to find out where he got them.
EPA and their BS....

Aren't these the same as RotoPax? They're listed as for sale at quite a few places.

Geez, looks like in an emergency you could use it as a sand ladder or makeshift stretcher. Not that I'd try it Only problem is it doesn't fit in a standard fuel holder.
