Title: Gas cap
Post by: 53stvblt on April 06, 2010, 07:37:27 PM
Does anyone know where I can get a gas cap for my 53 chevy that has a small round spring loaded door in the center which accepts the current fuel nozzles   :?:
Thanks,

The Hagan cap won't work on your old Chev or any other old car. The cap has a thread on it. You will have to buy the kit as shown and weld/glue the new pipe to your old pipe.

I see.  Will the new pipe slip over the old pipe or is it the same size :?:
Thank you Harry,

 I checked on their website. But they don't have one for my ol 53.  I may be able to modify it so next time I go to the parts store I'll check one out.
Thank you much,
Bud

The Hagan pipe is 2" outside diameter. Mine comes straight in from the cap, but I think they sell a 90* also.

If you watch ebay for "Perma Cap" you might get lucky and find the older style.  As noted, most are threaded for later model apps with emissions.
