The gas caps can be had from any of the Cobra replica dealers.
No one makes a direct fit one though, the mount and the trim ring have to be made.

Nick, did you do the work to make it fit ?? Maybe this could turn into a little side business for someone. It seems every time this cap is mentioned, there are quite a few people interested in it (including me).
