Default WTB big632 Billet Gas Door Lid

Wanted to buy. These were produced by someone named big632 several years ago for early C3s with the large gas cap. Need not have the emblem but must be in very good condition. PM if you wish. I would appreciate a photo.

It's too bad those are not in production anymore, I think they would still be best sellers. I tried to contact the original maker of them to see about buying the CNC program for them, but I never heard back.

I had mine custom engraved:

Yes, I read the archived threads on this topic and noticed the fine job done on yours. Given the sunburst emblem on the front of my 1974 I thought a sunburst gas lid emblem from a 1975 would look nice on the billet version.

These units seem to date from 2005 when big632 produced them. There is no current address for him unfortunately.

Take note, there were two models produced by Big 632. One that fit 1968-77 and another for 78-82, and they are not interchangeable.

If we contacted Ring Brothers or Fesler they should be able to make something similar to these, and let them know that we are interested in buying them. They do make some nice stuff.
