billet filler

[68rag]

how do i get one of these billet fillers for my 68 camaro ?

You mean something like this: http://www.isa-racing.de/20071/kuehler/seite-209.htm

As an alternative you can search under Harley Davidson parts on eBay.

OR your best option is; waiting for Larry.

thanks for reply , thats what i am looking for any idea when Larrys will be ready?

[neki67]

mmmmmmmmm, that's a question that needs a sensitive answer, I'm afraid and I'm not too good in that department.

When you search some of my old posts you'll find more info.

These guys make a nice piece.....& they're located in the good ole U.S.A.:

[neki67]

Yep, they import them from the good ole United Kingdom!
Sold by e.g. Demon Tweeks; http://www.demon-tweeks.co.uk/products/search.asp?keyword=gas+cap&classCode=MSPORT&brandCode=all&x=35&y=8&filterBrandCode=B314&OrderBy=

But you'll still have the language barrier . . .

Pardon me. Let me be more specific.
If a person in the U.S. (good ole) is hell bent on buying a product from the source, he/she could purchase a fine product (in my book) at:

Or, he could deal with some nice people (in my opinoin) located in sunny Florida (U.S.A.) by contacting:

Larry announced at the PT dinner at SEMA that he has handed over the gas cap to another company we all know. They should have the first run before Christmas. Larry should be back soon to fill in more details so keep an eye out here on the forums.

Larry was out at the Optima Battery challenge with his beutiful new Camaro. Hopefully everything went well and hell be back soon to let you know about the gas caps.

I assume that the 3" version is what you need for the Camaro tail panel ??

[ProdigyCustoms]

It is no secret now, Air Ride is making the Gas Caps and will be accepting orders real soon. Bret tells me that 25 of them will be ready to ship real soon and another couple hundred should be ready before Christmas

[rsk68]

Larry nice to hear about progress on the caps, does this mean I wont be casting the filler necks for you?

[neki67]

As far as I can remember (it's been a couple of years ago); yes, you need the 3" version. But remember the old carpenters rule; Measure twice, cut/buy once.

BTW; glad Larry's caps are now realy going to be released soon!

I wonder if the waiting list is coming from Larry or do we need to contact Air Ride to get on it?? I've been waiting almost a year now for one of these caps and would like to know where I stand as far as getting one of these anytime soon? Please let us know what's up Larry!!

[CliffS]

It's a while ago, but will there be a vented version?

[ProdigyCustoms]

We may be able to take orders real soon. We kinda pushed Bret into pre announcing the caps at the dinner. Just bear with us, Look for a formal announment

[minendrews68]

Has anyone heard of a speculated price for these?

[Jaymz]

Dont get to excited. Remember how many time these caps were just around the corner? Even though it's a little more promising, I wouldnt count your chickens before thay hatch. And now that we have a third party the price just went up.

[ProdigyCustoms]

Pricing coming soon

I wonder if the first 25 are going to be for the super ultra high profile cars and us common folks will get them eventually. :poke: Back to the waiting line I go.

[neki67]

Well, enough options IMO unless you consider it a too advanced operation connecting such a cap to your tank yourself . . .

I myself am enjoying this gas cap for more than 3 years now on my low profile 'maro here in the Netherlands . . . .

I already contacted Air Ride to ask this exact question. They told me that this gas cap is not on a limited run and they should be available to everyone with no waiting line. I'll believe this when I see it. I tried to get on their list for one of the first ones but heard nothing back? They're probably already spoken for by the high profile rides! I'll bet you the price has also doubled from what Larry had planned on selling them for. I think that I'll just stay with my SS cap for now.:hmm:

[TonyL]

Those that had expressed their desire in a cap will be offered the new caps in the order the requests came in originally. There will be an announcement soon guys.

[patriot68]

i should be in the top 3 then:)

I thought it was done by post count?
