Hello Hal. I did get the caps today and they look
great. Went rite out and took the rag (fuse) out of the gas filler pipe
Will send pymt tomorrow. as I got a monety order drawn on the bank of
Ugoslavia. I've been watching Mustang caps on ebait and am
going to score one. They go for as low as 99 cents. The cap will twist and
flip to the side like a pop open cap. #1 son will not be able to leave it
laying somewhere now Kids, they weren' my idea.

Paul,
That could probably be done. I've only lost the use of
a locking
cap since I've owned my 74 and that was due
to some A** snapping off
the Gremlin and taking it. I
have another but it is ONLY FOR
SHOW.
Have you gotten the caps yet?
