The Ford Barn - View Single Post - Do You Carry a Container of Gas in your Trunk?

I have for years carried a 5 litre plastic fuel container behind the back seat in my 1934 Ford 4 door sedan. The screw on lid and seal works perfectly so no smells and never a problem. Its tied down and cant move. Funny thing I have never needed it but have got a couple of other vintage Fords out of trouble who have run out of petrol. I have a larger fire extinguisher in all my vehicles. The 1934 Ford does not have a trunk or boot only a storage area behind the rear seat in sedans. Oh by the way I was a fireman for 34 years and do understand about fires and ignition. My hydrostatic fuel gauge is not all that accurate. All knockers are welcome to reply or not ride in my car. Regards, Kevin.
