Yep I was at a local tractor pull last month and some low life stole the Chrome gas cap off my 58 truck.
So be on the look out on E-bay ect. Here locally it well probably be mine I didn't have it in the lock postion so they just walked by and took it.
Well the joke is on them the S stands for Stant the manufacturer not Studebaker. I made it myself and put the flip key cover on it off another cap it looked for all the world as an original. Orginal enough to be stolen. I didn't think these caps were worth much but just yesterday I went to a meet and saw a cap that looked just like mine only shiney new in the box it has in small print Packard written on it. Selling price $275.00 Dollars "WOW' So I'd say mine to someone who has no idea their about to be taken be a swindler may pay a great deal more then it's really worth.
I saw a couple of guys hanging around my truck but I had no idea they were up to no good. All I know was he was tall and it was at the Kitsap county Airfield where it was taken.
I have another cap but its just a painted one and I'd say no big deal but I hate thiefs even stupid ones that don't know what their takeing. I will keep a closer eye on my truck at shows from now on, and will probably even take my full disc hubcaps off it and lock the cab. So out there some where lurking is a low life scum bag just out to be an ass and rip people off for no good reason.
I'm a firm believer in what goes around comes around, He will be rewarded.
