Looks sorta "off" and not altogether integrated. It's kinda like the bolt in Frankenstein's neck on that smooth rear fender. It just doesn't work for me, but if others like it.....

 

[VooDooII]

Looks out of place, maybe better for a boat

 

[SuperNova66]

$250.00!!!?

That was my first thought too.

Yeah, $250 is a killer no doubt. Looks like I'm in the minority, but I really like it, especially if it were all polished. I think its because I'm a bit more of the "blockier" style. While I really like Torque Thrusts and the sort (smoother rolling spokes) I'm still a sucker for a blockier look like the Convo Pros, or the wheels on 33hitman33's car.

I think the cap would still flow fine with Torque wheels, but if the car were all smoothed out and really lowered, then no, I don't think the cap would fit. But for me, I like it. I guess I always thought the 66-67 cars needed something on the side. Like an emblem or something. With nothing (like the passenger side) it can sometimes look too plain without something there. Just depends on the overall theme of the car.

$24.95 would be too much. I've got a chome one I dont like, would like to get one to paint the body color.

Really? That is one of the things I like about your car (and of course the wheels). By the way, are those Welds?

 

[33hitman33]

Yep, Weld ProStars. Thanks.

x2,
i also hate the chrome gas cap,
the primed/paintable repro caps are now available for around $25.

I like the cap behind a gas door. The one in ques. looks like a fuel cell lid or something you would see on a drag boat.

 

[66 BADBOY]

You know what would really be slick (of course, I'm the oddball on this gas cap thing, so you might think its stupid). They should lose the bolts, and weld studs to the underside of the outer ring. The studs would act just like the allen bolts and extend into the wheel tub for the nuts to tighten to. That way the outer ring would be smooth (instead of having the allen heads showing) and might help it flow a bit better. It would kinda lose that jet fuel gas cap look, but might help it out?

I dunno! I guess I'm in the minority when it comes to the cap! I like it but not mounted on the quarter. I got one from AirRide so I'm gonna mount it on top of the tank Ricks Hot Rods fabbed for the '66.

Where do you find the primed caps? Figure I should get one painted with the car while I am at it.. Can always get another chrome one! :yes:

I may have missed the gas cap you were looking at but I loved the mazda cover I saw in your link. Reminded me of my honda cover... Keeps the gas guzzlers from looking for my fuel and its a remote opening switch from the inside of the car, Umm, just like my honda LOL Oh, and it allowed me to have a nice fuel cell without having to open the trunk to filler-up JR

Filler door on the side

Filler neck to the 20 gal fuel cell

 

[6T6NOVA]

No Gas filler in fender

I got tired of the gasoline spilling down the side of my fender. So I moved the filler neck into the trunk. I mounted an unlead type filler neck into the wheel well. The new style nozzels stay hooked into the filler neck and I don't have to hold it in place.

That looks nice too!! Has anyone seen a round door from another car? I think round would look pretty cool too.
