It's been beat to death, but... The old locking gas cap

[jb666]

The RD-25881 locking gas caps are in stock here in the warehouse and available to ship out.

Payment via PayPal can be accepted.

They are also in stock on our show truck which will be at the Turkey Rod Run coming up here shortly.

Just placed my order. Thank you!!

If you catch it in time, can you send a catalog along with my order?

oh yeah, just fyi, even though its a 1st gen it will has a flip top fuel door on the shelf waiting for the rest of the car so i definitely need one, not pulling your leg or anything

Yeah, I am in for one. I need one also. Always find mine open at cruise nights & car shows. Don't know if people walk by & just think it is cool to pop it open or what??? I know it is not from driving around because whenever I stop to get gas or pack in the garage or something it is always still closed.

thats not a very good feeling

[mauve66]

just noticed the no group buy, maybe they will still be left for Xmas.  the dash lights and outside trim are eating up some money right now

I got one of those locking units on mine it came with the car and the fellow had to cut the spring out to make it fit but at least I know no one is taking gas or sticking stuff in there .

If anyone decides to deal with Laysons, please deal solely with Rick who has replied in this thread.  You can thank me later.

Hi Rick!     (AllBlueRT)  Mike from Hays, Ks.

Well, before I heard about Rick , I had ordered one of the plastic cheap caps on EBay.

It came today. It snaps down in place and clicks locked.. BUT.. The factory flip top on my '69 WILL NOT close with this in place, as others had mentioned... So save your $$.. I'm sure if I started taking things apart it would work, but why?

[Lord Warlock]

Gonna have to buy another replacement for mine, right now i can't get mine out of the filler neck, somehow i've misplaced the key, which oddly never made much difference in the ensuing decades, pretty much any key would open it, but after the paint job it seems to have gotten paint around the edges and is stuck in place.  don't want to drill out the lock as that would put loose metal in the gas tank.  Mine came that way from the factory, as it was on the build sheet.  guess i'll go out and try to figure out how to loosen it up some more, then buy a repro like the original.

[mauve66]

a little gas around the edges will soften the paint i would think then pull it right out

Would this be needed?

[Ghoste]

That's a 68 only piece.

[DrHemi]

I know but the design in general

[Ghoste]

I think if it were needed they would have stuck with it.

1300 bucks for a gas cap....

Hey on my '70 the cap will not close when the lock is in place, are you supposed to remove the "guts" from the flip top when using the lock?? (it is a CA emissions car)

No.  The spring/seal remain in place

[Ghoste]

Does your 70 have the assembly line installed style or the dealer installed over the parts counter accessory style?

You talking about the door or the locking cap??

I think the CA emission might have somthing to do with it, although the only diffrence I've noticed is the extra hoses and a condensor tube on the PAX side...but cap/door is original. The lock doesn't fit well and the seal spring in the cap makes locking it almost impossible. If I smash the cap down it will lock but Since I could tell it wasn't supposed to work that way I've only used it once (it's an NOS part) and just put it back in it's box and never used it again. Would like to it if I could make it would without fear of damage

[Ghoste]

I never thought about the California emission thing.  Is the inside of the fuel filler door different then on the CA Chargers in 70?

And/or the filler neck is diffrent

Thought for sure I had updated this..But, I got my cap from Rick @ Layson's a couple of weeks ago... VERY nice pc... OEM quality, perfect fit.. I'm happy

That one at the top of this thread looks like its a generic plastic thing and obviously by their application chart fits a few makes and models.  The Laysons one is very much the one to get but I wonder if that generic one was modeled after an oem one?  Maybe one of those AMC or Buick models, did they even offer such a thing?
