Default '74 gas cap

Any ideas for finding a 74 gas cap? All the "74" caps I have been sold are too small. Any recomendations?

The 70-74 gas cap is repro-ed and available from all the Corvette parts vendors. The one made by Paragon is made from original tooling. The price is about $25. All 63 to 74 Corvette gas caps are the same size, but 63-69s are vented while 70-74s are sealed.

I guess I will have to buy one online. I tried local shops like Napa and Pep Boys but what they had listed was too small to fit. Dang. I ordered some parts today and forgot to add it to the list.

I ordered mine from Zip and the fit was perfect.
