Default Flush hidden gas cap

Did a search but did not see anything.

Looking for a gas cap that is totally hidden by paint when screwed in. No fasteners, just a paintable surface.

I did some googling and found at least one flush mount for a motorcycle that I could maybe use but it would still need to mount to a filler neck and to my back fender.

Thanks, Joe

You'll have to get the motorcycle one and weld a fitting to the back of it for your tank filler hose. One of the problems I've seen with those flush style on motorcycles is the gas gets to the paint and starts to make it bubble and flake after a year or two.

East Bay Muscle cars has a few cool caps. Not quite the welding bung type but hidden fastener surround. Not sure I would want the gas nozzle resting against the painted surface.

We used this on a 69 recently. Put one on the top of both quarters for easy filling. Worked out pretty nice.

Thanks Steve,
I was looking on your site last night but the flash on my MAC was not cooperating. New 20 meg broadband coming on Monday to replace the 1.5 meg DSL we've lived with for 15 years. I will take a look then.

BTW I have a Torino GT just like the style you did the Quadralink in for Jason M.
