NM WTB saddle tank gas caps - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Good afternoon,

I have been trying to find some gas caps for my saddle tanks and I have not had any luck. The tanks are the original factory molded tanks and the gas cap is 1 7/8 diameter with 2 "ears" on top. Would love to have these to put my tanks back in the truck.

Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin I have at least one buried somewhere. Will try to dig later this weekend. Pete

If your just looking for a cap that will fit and is new...try one of the chrome flat ones with the black plastic handle across it. The handle is screwed on and the chrome part can be pried off leaving the very small diameter cap with some tabs that held the plastic handle. My 72 dodge dart has this type of cap and I have had to do this before.
