300TD auxillary fuel tank spare tire well
Do any of you guys remember a post about such a thing? 300TD auxillary fuel tank that fit in the spare tire well? Maybe a part number or a source?
I'm not positive I saw it here but I haven't read any other forum since I signed up here shortly after I purchased my TD, so either I dreamed of one or saw it here.

They exist
 I've got one mocked up ready for a fiberglass and epoxy layup for my diesel 107, which would give me a max range of 1147mi on the highway.

They're NLA (no longer available) brand new - best is to get NOS or used.
I sold mine a while back, since I could not make it work with my 300D with factory or 15" bundt spare wheel (the wheels cannot be installed face down unless they're steelies). FS: NOS MB spare tire mounted fuel canister - Benzworld.org - Mercedes-Benz Discussion Forum Canister has MB part no. B 6 7 58 0038.     Bag of hardware for installation on a the S123 or S124 (hardware p/n B6 7 58 0033).  According to hardware instructions, it is compatible with: 1. S123 with steel/light alloy rims 2. S124 with steel/light alloy rims

Thanks that's it
I didn't dream it, but I might be dreaming thinking I could find
one now for a reasonable price

Atlantic British seems to be the primary vendor of the higher quality 20l NATO jerry cans. They sell them for $40. On their own web site and via Amazon, they claim they will not sell to CA. Other people re-sell them via Amazon for up to $90. Perhaps those vendors have different policies. Do you recall who you bought from on Amazon or what you paid? Thanks.

I don't have the Amazon email anymore, it was more than a year ago. I bought 4 for $100 with prime shipping. They each came with a pour spout (not CARB safety type), mount and spare gasket. I found the deal on BITOG. I use 2 whenever I have $25 off on 25gal of diesel at Safeway/Vons.
