What old mopars had flat, flush flip out fuel doors besides a 67 Dodge? I'm In need of two of these and didn't know if that's my only choice?
 
Fabricate the door in from one of the current models out in production . . . Here's my 67 Belvedere Convertible with the fabricated mod . . .

Original gas cap on the car

The donor door from a Mada 625 . . . has a handle by the driver door to open the cover . . .

Donor part welded in place . . .

After most of the bodywork is done trying to blend it into the quarter panel . . .

Very cool Larry. :thumbsup:
Is that electric or manual pull cable to release?

It is a manual cable, but it could just as easily be converted to electric . . . nothing but a little more fabrication . . .

BUT . . . I tend to lean toward manual as you're less likely to have it fail . . .
