    G'day Fusion

    I have a couple of plastic "Treloar" branded ones,blue neck/funnel in 500ml and 1 litre, from the late 70's early 80's from memory, think they may have ex Altantic/Caltex or Ampol, now Caltex and I would be lost without them, and my gearbox oil hyperdermic, which are in regular use.

    These oil bottles often turn up at garage sales and sunday markets, where the are reasonably priced, before they are put into swap meets/antique shops with bul***** prices






    cheers
