Chrome locking gas door - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

bigblock73 · 03-03-2005, 09:49 AM

Hey folks. I have this chrome locking gas door for sale. It came on my 73 when I purchased it, and I have seen them on quite a few 67-72's. I am pretty sure it is an aftermarket piece, more than likely from the mid 70's...possibly becoming popular during the gas crunch. Anyhow, it is in perfect shape with no discoloration, pits, or rust (its just dusty from sittin and has some water spots on it). It will also come with the key. Asking $25 shipped to your door, unless it is leaving the lower 48...then it will be $30 shipped (to cover the add'l cost). Reply here if interested. Thanks.

I'm interested in it if it is the same size as mine. Could you post a measurement?

I guess it could be SS...but it has a chrome like finish to it. Don't laugh, but how would I be able to tell for sure?

The dimensions are close enough. It'll look much nicer than my aluminum door someone pryed open. PM me your payment information. Paypal e-mail address or for money order, your name and mailing address. I'll respond with my mailing address. Thanks!
