I used to get it x pump by the 20 litre .used loads in my workshop but not enough to get theh 44gal

you might find it less than $5 / l at supremarket , or do what i do now .wait till supercheap autos has 25% of days and get 4 litre packs.

what i realy resent is all the waste of idiotic 1 liter plastic bottles .Bet some of the Indian comunity know where to buy it in bulk .loads of them love using kero cookers

Try places that sell bulk pain and panel beating supplies.I always buy thinners at those places for around $3 a litre for good thinners,bring your own containerss etc,they sometimes do kero and turps cheap.Also bigger roading companies sell Kero if they have tanks,last place I worked had a tank and bowser of Kero.Used for asphalt and cleaning etc,verrry cheap.

Wasn't it the same as Shellite!

I used to run my Model A on it, it was a lot cheaper than petrol, and with 4.5:1 compression ratio, ran a lot better.

No, it's totally different. What you're talking about is the equivalent to Britolite which was a cheap solvent for a while and was basically very low octane petrol. If you added toluol to it you could run a car on it, just.
It would have been ideal for your old clunker.
