Re: [Amc-list] Fw: AMC parts-needed



I've got a least two caps, One should be late style non locking, one is NOS locking and I don't know what year it fits exactly or how to tell.
  I'd sell the pair for $30 plus shipping, The locking is in a box new and I doubt it is a factory cap, maybe, I'd look again at it if anyone is interested...
