Looking for bottom of Stihl Blitz gas can like this one

[7oaks]

I have the top - gas can portion - of the Stihl Blitz gas can tool box combo and would love to find a bottom for it. Anyone got the white bottom that they can't find the top for and would be willing to part with it? Doesn't hurt to ask does it? LOL

Here is a link to the whole set that sold on eBay recently:

Vtg USMC Blitz Fuel Tank Stihl Chainsaw 1 1 2 Gallon Metal Gas Can Tool Box | eBay

Thanks for looking and for any leads.

Thanks for the link. I hadn't seen the solid red ones. Anybody know why they are reffered to as Marine Corps gas cans?

That's a different can. What he has is the one where the top half is a fuel tank and the bottom half a tool box.

That's right and it's 1.5 gallons. Bottom is white.

Oh, I did not know that. That's pretty neat!

I have both styles. I looked for a pic of my 2-piece Stihl can, but couldn't find one. One just sold earlier this week for >$150! The flexible spouts are nearly impossible to find.

I just found a mint 2 1/2 gal 1 piece can with the correct flexible spout. I don't understand how they are vented. Will someone explain?

:msp_ohmy: Yeah, I'm not about to pay that much for just the bottom.

I've seen those cans lots of times when out buying used saws and people never want to part with them. I may anti up my offers now that I see what they sell for. I sold one that was Partner stenciled about 6 years ago and I got nice money for it but nothing like that.

There is a small hole in the spout's hex close to the threads.

I've not seen one anywhere other than on the bay. They seem to be not that uncommon? I'll just keep looking - was just hoping someone has a bottom that came from a broken pair or something. Thanks guys.

I have a brand new one top and bottom still has tags on it
