    The correct fuel filler cap was the same PN from 1937 to 1970 so hit up some older dealers , most have 'em dusty way on a back shelf , if you can find the old guy who either knows where or is willing to go look.... :rolleyes:

    I don't like the original painted caps so I always order up a nice shiny Stainless Steel one from STANT , Pep-Boys etc. will be cheap , they'll prolly have to order it though .
