Back in the day, circa, 2000, my local military surplus store had bunch of white metal ammo boxes with feet on each side for bolting it down.
I bought several over the years to use on various vehicles as they were perfect for bolting to the front bumper of a Jeep for storing chains, shackles and straps.
I was told they came from the interior of a tank or armored vehicle of some kind.
I have not seen any in years, and no web search seems to even conjure a picture of one.
Anyone know what these came from or how to locate any more? Here's a pic of one painted to match the Jeep I had at the time.
