Default C1 locking gas cap

I've been asked many times as to how to locate a GM accessory locking gas cap for a C1 . Mine is the first time I ever saw one for sale NOS that I bought . It's for 55 but will work on any Corvette 53 to 62. 55 Chevy car looked the same but is design different on the bottom and will not work on Corvette even tho their being repro'ed .
It's one of the rarest GM accessories for a C1 you'll ever see.

So I guess asking you to give it to me for free is out of the question.

Very cool item, i wish they would make a locking cap even if it was just generic.
