All are welcome to celebrate The Gas Tank Man Elton H Duffy

With profound grief and immense love, this morning my father, The Gas Tank Man joined my mother in Heaven. He passed away while embarking on one last earthly adventure, traveling to his ancestral homeland of Norway to satisfy a life long dream.

Long ago, he came within hours of becoming a licensed pilot , and left this world flying and much like he lived it: with boundless enthusiasm, insatiable curiosity, infectious joy, and an adventurous spirit that never stopped reaching for the horizon.

His life was a gift to everyone fortunate enough to know him. Though my heart is shattered, I am deeply grateful that his final chapter was written doing something he loved, in a place that called to his soul.
Fly high, Dad. Give Mom the biggest hug from all of us. Until we meet again, you will be loved, missed, and carried with us every day. ❤️

My display of war cans at the AOMCI meet in Tomahawk, Wisconsin.

NOS Vintage Mercury Kiekhaefer outboard gas tank hold down tank- trap clamps. I have 3 sets of these and I'll be taking these to Tomahawk. Notice the plastic piece inside the clamp. These are probably harder to find than Mercury 2 line pressure tank hose. Offers welcomed.

Getting loaded for the AOMCI Tomahawk meet. It's going to be a dandy! Here are some items I'm loading. If you see a cooler you like, let me know and I'll bring it along.
I will also be showing you how to replace the diaphragms on both the metal and plastic push buttons.. I'll also have diaphragms and tank gaskets for sale. Located by Tom Johnson site from St Paul. Located half way down the strip. Turn right, go 50 yards, and bingo, there I am.

Here is a collection of war cans that most of you will never see in your lifetime if I don't post them. I've been conferring with the expert on these war cans, Mr. Glenn Folkerts in Fairview Heigjts, Illinoshortly. He wrote an article anout these cans that appeared in a AOMCI magazine back in 2009. Glenn supplied the decals for these cans. He was excited to see the 5 gallon can with the brass swivel nozzle. It was a first for him and evidently quite rare. I would like to display my collection at the Tomahawk, Wisconsin, meet that will be here shorty.
