anybody post pictures of how to shave the gas cap on my demon so it looks smooth???
I knew it. Ok maybe I should say how to eliminate the gas cap so it does not protrude out beyond the car. I already welded the side markers but I am now looking at that gas cap. By the way, I could use a nice meat slicer toooo

Usually when they shave something they weld in metal and delete the holes or openings....In your case, You would have to have another way to put gas in it....You have a fuel cell and access from the trunk?
found this gas cap at a swap meet it has grooves all the way around, still hard to get off, but works on my duster.
The above with the cable release!Use a contour gauge on your quarter panel. Then find something at the u-pull-it that matches or is more concave. Many modern vehicles have the style with the finger hole or are totally flush and use a release. Weld it up and post some pics.
Any idea on what cars?Actually some don't even need the cable. They work like a European drain stopper. Push to release.
Off the top of my head...No. I had a rental car last year with one. Don't remember what. Just something they gave me at the airport.Any idea on what cars?
Ok. thanks.Off the top of my head...No. I had a rental car last year with one. Don't remember what. Just something they gave me at the airport.
Push to release, push to close. As long as the quarter is less convex than the Demon should be really easy. I'd cut a foot all around it to give plenty of room to blend it in. And of course take as much of the neck as possible.
Kindig-it Designs from tv use those a lot. Looks awesome! I'd do that type if I was doing something like that.you can buy pop up gas caps with weld in bung. I've help other guys install it and it does look sweet. Flush mounted, just push on it and it pops up.View attachment 1715005079
I realize it's different car...mine is a 69 Dart GT, but we relocated the fuel filler and welded in place sheet metal. We relocated it to top of quarter panel and used a pop up style similar to what you would see on a motorcycle. We then shaved the gas cap itself to fit the contour of the quarter panel to virtually blend in.anybody post pictures of how to shave the gas cap on my demon so it looks smooth???
