devilsbullet Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 title says it all. lookin for a gas cap that will fit a 68 510 goon. Link to comment
Tristin Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 There are those nice looking locking gas caps on eBay... I would snag one of those. They are advertised as direct fits. Link to comment
devilsbullet Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 only one on there that I've seen that I would be comfortable as fitting. most of em are sedan only. and the one I would be comfortable with, i'm not comfortable with dropping 200 bucks on just yet lol. Link to comment
DREWSDIME Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Like tristin said EGAY has some for $50 or $60 but they look like shit IMO. I typed in Datsun wagon and 2 of them popped up. NOS 68 gas cap or even nice used one is gonna cost a pretty penny. Link to comment
Tristin Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Whats different between the sedan and wagon caps? Link to comment
Draker Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Wagons are a lot bigger. http://community.ratsun.net/topic/27945-brand-new-nos-1968-1969-datsun-510-wagon-locking-gas-cap/ Link to comment
devilsbullet Posted January 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 and parts stores don't differentiate between sedans and wagons...sadness :( Link to comment
NICOYA Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 i have this one from a 69 i want $80 shipping and paypal fee included must be 1 5/8" (1.625") I.D. or little big Link to comment
Laecaon Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 You do have to be careful with wagon caps, as the 68/69 have a different size neck than the 70+. Caps are NOT interchangeable. Link to comment
devilsbullet Posted January 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 that 69 one that Nicoya has would fit my 68, correct laecaon? Link to comment
NICOYA Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 that 69 one that Nicoya has would fit my 68, correct laecaon?-------------------------------Measure your wagon neck if is bigger then 1.625" ill fit Link to comment
devilsbullet Posted January 31, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 planning on doin that once I can get it to my dads shop. I have no mics available to me other than there unfortunately Link to comment
Laecaon Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 I do believe it should. Although the cutoff may have been earlier in 69... I think the date for change over was 6/69... Link to comment
