Guest mikeburch Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I have this really neat Gas Cap. I'm thinking it is after-market.It is marked, "NEVER LOST".You, simply, turn the dog-bone to open. You can't lose the top.It is vented.Thank you,mikeburchCLICK ON PHOTOS TO ENLARGE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Are you sure that it is not a radiator cap? That would be my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mikeburch Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Larry Schramm ....................No, I am pretty sure it is a Gasoline Cap, as it has a vent hole.Thank you,mikeburch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fleek Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I am thinking a truck application for saddle tanks. Lots of the older ones had a threaded cap and this would screw on in its place . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete K. Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Yes, The cap is an aftermarket. I had a few of them (NOS) in boxes about 25 years ago and the boxes were labeled to fit different cars that had the exact diameter and thread as the Never-Lost cap. My caps were "gonzo" since they are pot metal. That little square spot on the thin cam lock plate is part of the little handle which is peened at factory. This is where they break really easily.

Guest mikeburch Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Pete K. ......................Mine must be an earlier version, as it is made of solid brass, not pot metal.Thank you for your input,mikeburch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete K. Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Mike, I was in such a rush to answer you, I did not notice your cap IS brass. Mine were EXACTLY same appearance of construction, but pot metal. Also, as I remember, the boxes AND cap were marked "Neva-Lost", not "Never-lost". Musta been a Boston thing aroun' heeah. Were mine after-after market??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
