Re: Fuel Door
I've seen some done on the 68's here through the side marker, I'd like to see what some people have done as well. I dont like it in the bed because of dirt and when you go to fill it if the hose is full its all over everything.
CPP has side fill doors and some flush door setups. they also have some different colored anadized units but no picks. I sent them an email awhile back and never heard anything from them. http://www.classicperform.com/6092ch...%20Accessories

Re: Fuel Door
Got mine off of a late 80's early 90's Nissan Sentra. It's about 5 inches in diameter. I got the cable also, so I can make it open from the inside.

Re: Fuel Door
I got one off a 1996 Lumina van. See my pics on photoshop under LOBLAZER or Oct 2004 TOTM.
Real easy, drill one big hole and pop it in. No body work. 1992 to 1995 are all the same. 96 is better, has a finger hole and needs no cable to open. $10.00 at the wrecking yard. Doug Last edited by loblazer; 02-15-2006 at 01:50 PM. |

Re: Fuel Door
I'm taking one from a ford ranger, looks like it will fit/work pretty good.
It's on the blazer but their just a little higher on the quarter than a burb. |

Re: Fuel Door
Now that I've seen more of the side marker light doors, I'm thinking about going that route. Not sure if it'll be too much of a reach though.

Re: Fuel Door
I am not sure I'll ever get to the marker light set up, but it is nice. I hate the exposed filler on my Blazer and Burbs, but the doors almost seem as bad (don't hate me!) I just think if we are going to cover up the neck we should "hide it" completely or at least use the very small holed doors like on that sweet Burb. I think the street rob companies sell those small diameter fuel doors and I like those better than some of the stock types, except the cable pulled ones (they at least blend in) the square one looks out of place at the back of the quarter and the finger hole....Well, the truck as a whole is nicer than mine so I'll just keep my mouth shut.
