I need a really nice early gas cap, with all gaskets. I don't care much about the outer appearance, though it shouldn't have painted finish. Looking for nearly perfect guts.

And here comes the zinger.....backpad light Only white switch and underside chrome bezel considered. Have one that is perfect, except for a lens crack (original to my car) and one that isn'y cracked, but with the plating fading.

Have a perfect one?

Hey Pat,
Have you tried an artist brush with some of the silver reflector paint you can get a Home Depot to touch up the chrome ring?

More concerned with the guts of the cap than the exterior.

I can tale simichrome to the exterior to make it even look chromed, or more subdued.

Nope, but I will. Thanks for the tip.
