starting to collect some odd things for the new garage. I'm looking for Chryco oil tins or signs, displays, etc in particular... not the earlier stuff, but the 60's/70's that are white with the medium blue trim and black text....like pic below

anybody got anything for sale, thanks

ive got a few newer irving oil cardboards, and some irving, B/A, Gulf and esso plastic outboard oil containers from the 70's era.

like those as much as tin cans
 
I have this old can of power steering fluid. Not sure what era its from. The can is still full.

I have a green can like the one in the pic. It had the blue/white paper label over the painted can when I got it. Must have had old stock to get rid of
 
I collect shop 'stuff' too... most of the work gets done at our bigger, messy, productive shop and this one is reserved for hanging out for the most part.

I have a few old mopar cans. BUT lately i've been collecting old 2 cycle oil cans with cool snowmobile pics on them. Going to make a display at my place up north in snowmobile country. Got about 90 cans rite now!!!
 
Started collecting a few cans mainly from flea markets and estates sales. eBay has plenty, but the cost is way out in the zone that I cannot reach. I am looking for the red omega Mopar vintage cans myself......
