Local Source for Gas Cans and Rack ?

I need to install a rack for a couple of gas cans in my trailer, and also need a couple of 5 gallon fuel cans, the kind that you can use to put fuel in your car without dribbling gas down the side.

(Adam, no need to reply about PVC with a valve - I remember that bit )

In the past I would have started looking at GI Joe's, but...

Just googling for local sources of this is turning up nothing.

If you know where to find these in the Portland area, that would be great.

Found the gas cans at a Motorcycle shop in Hillsboro.

No one seems to have any kind of rack - this is the kind of thing I would have gone to GI Joe's for...

Some trailer shops have racks for them (like places that make landscape trailers, or sell trailer accessories), and a few motorcycle shops have the racks for the square cans for dirt bikes. I know there is a dirt bike shop here that has them. Good luck.

Ended up making a bracket from 1/8 aluminum strip from ACE - works great.
