Sounds like a real demon may be bugging you...:D

Rick, how does your Lemans cap make the transition from the cap tube to the tank??? I'm using the same style cap but going directly into the original tank opening in the center of the rear deck and will probably need to use an old gas cap to close the tank, cut a hole into it, then slide the tube from the Lemans into it...

BTW...tell your favorite gal that I'm looking forward to holding those beautiful hands...much like my bride wants to hug her favorite stripper...;)

Cya in...12 days!!!

Steve: I got mine through Finishline Accessories a few years ago and it seems to me that I paid $150 or more back then. Take a look at their selection of caps, then I found another site that may have something, as well.

Marv, I took the easy way out for right now...................

drilled/countersunk bolts/left emblem/& polished old cap......... so it looks great, but is fake !!! Right now I'm gonna use it like it is, but I can always do the solid/permanent install later (if I want to !)

Wild, great idea, make sure you put some kinda of dampening between that (somewhat heavy) cap and your bodywork, or I'm pretty sure it will shed some of your paint.

Dude, I love your car. That car has incredible attitude, I hope my car has half the look of that car, it is awesome.

Steve, my cover is good quality and already mocked up on the
widebody. For $200, it should be, but Finish Line doesn't
carry it anymore, so I don't know what to tell you.

The Cobra guys have been using these covers for years...
maybe you can find a good one by going on-line to one of
the Cobra suppliers.

Good luck, Marv.
