Nick, did you forget about my trim ring? That race style looks great.

Nope, I have yours cut, was trying to work out a way that it would mount to your existing cap or to the body of your car. My idea was to put some of 3M's clear protectivie film down first then mount it with 3M tape? weatherstrip adhesive? clear silicone?

Sounds like a good idea. Put me down for one of the racers too when you get time.

I'm working on finishing them now, they will be offered to the forum members in the order that they requested them. I will keep some to one side for Carlisle.

Nick, I think you've got those five sold about 3 times over. Are you planning another batch?

I've been franticly trying to find a flip top for my '76 before bonding the deck back on. (at this point, I'm only days away.)

I bought 10 more caps and worked out a deal with my welder (painting his bike) for him to do the welding.

They start at $235 and up from there depending on the style of the trim ring, fasteners etc.
The gas caps themselves have gone up $30 in the last 6 months...and aluminum plate isn't cheap right now either.

I am a new member and have been looking for one of those for quite a while. I have a 77 and am very interested in purchasing a cap. Please put me on the list when you have them available.

Thanks a lot
Dom

This is mean looking!

So, it fits in to the factory opening with no body mods? Do you use the same fuel assembly?

yup, you leave your stock cap on the tank , install the Monza cap ove r the top an just put your hand through and twist off the stock cap, push it to one side to fill up, its tight, but it works.
