Only one source for correct small rivet, unless Jamie @ megaparts got some of Richard's finally, as I had been waiting for Jamie's new source for 3 years and he had given up.

Ok thanks, ordered one
From Richard I hope ! If not and you went Megaparts let us know if he has stock. I ordered that one a good 4 years ago, it was on back order waiting for it to be tweaked for correctness and Jamie gave up waiting. Like I said unless he has Richards new wares..

I got one from Jamie a couple years ago at Carlisle. Bob from Glen Ray was out. Jamie and Roy are good people. As well as Bob.

Nice reproduction. 2 of my cars use "special" caps due to overflow bottles.. Luckily I have them both brand new...

As I said, let me know if you get one, I don't need help on it as I have them already from Richard. I've bought a bazillon items from Jamie, but that cap was still on back order and he told me he'd given up as late as me ordering my new 340 scripts for the Dart this Winter. Unless he now has Richard's stock for resale, I bet he can't fill the order.

Not sure of whom Jamie is sourcing his caps from, but very possibly the same as ours as we finally got the importer to get them back in stock. But like everything else, what is available today may not be there tomorrow as inventory is quickly being depleted filling back orders on the wholesale front.
