Fuel filler plug
Looking for a plug to fill the fuel filler hole in the cab. Fould this one for a 67-72 models. Does anyone know if this will also fit the AD cab?

Re: Fuel filler plug
I never considered buying one for my 59. It is pretty easy to make out of sheet metal. I used a manila folder to make my template.

Re: Fuel filler plug
I bought a locking gas cap for my 57 and will leave it there. The locking gas cap is for friends who borrow the truck and want to put gas in the wrong place.

Re: Fuel filler plug
On my TF I found part of the curve from the left over cab corner patch panel fit with a little massaging. I have saved odd shaped pieces from original fenders, doors, etc. to use for patching.

Re: Fuel filler plug
On my '53 I cut a rectangular hole, panel flanged the edges of a piece of 22 ga. sheet steel from Ace Hdwe. Drew it in tight with pop rivets, stitch welded it and ground out the rivets. A skim of Bondo and it disappeared.
