Looks like a metal jerry can. Should it not be a plastic Sceptre one?

I brought this up in the Jerry Can thread as well. Apparently the plastic cans weren't common until the mid 80s. I'm running a 70s dated metal can as well. The plastic cans barely fit within the lower strap.

Yes...I recall getting the Sceptre cans after submitting demands for the metal cans. When filled, they bulged so much that sliding them into a jerry can holder was a chore.

I saw stacked pallets of metal cans having an axe stroke through them rendering them useless, so Sceptre was the only way to go.
