Good suggestion to leave the "history of the can" in plain view. I'm going to live with it as is for now so I added an arm rest and rubberized the bottom. Now to figure out how to use the cavern known as the center console
What makes you not address the PHH now vs potentially incurring an issue when in flight? The can looks awesome.
PHH will be addressed this summer-good catch on the signature. I have slowly been doing PM and its on "The List".
Installed and on the lookout for metal cup holders.

Living with the can for a few days makes me realize that I mounted it too far forward. I can't stay in low range on the shifter without keeping my hand on the knob.
Sherman, have you worked out the front cup holder/open space yet? I'm with you too on not mass producing these things. They look awesome but making them in bulk in my tiny garage would make me drink more than I could afford.

Ammo can
You did a great job and I like the fact you kept the original color and markings. My paint was flaking off so I had no choice but to repaint. I had a cup holder in front this summer, but it was more in the way than useful-some screw holes are visible in the picture. I used a small scrap of auto carpet to hide the wiring and gap between. I have not had the problem with lo-range you talk about.
For organization inside the can I found some small bins at a container store fit well to organize my junk. Also, I used a bit of plywood inside to make flat storage space with a divider versus the curved bottom you've got.
Cheers.

I like it. Great idea. I would add a holster on the inside. I agree keep the history, raw.
Green it is! Sherman, thanks for the information and the inspiration. Cup holder attached to the back, Disco cup holder up front. D, 2, L is the issue I'm having. It looks like my can sits higher than yours by just a fraction. Ill figure it out eventually.
This mod has been added to my ever growing list. Now off to eBay to find an ammo can!
