Re: Classic Camaro Gas Cap Switch

anything is possible, just depends on how much modification and fabrication you want to do.

Since those fit in the filler neck & a 3rd gen filler neck is down in a pocket, behind a gas door......I'd say you'd hafta extend the neck, then hafta deal with how close that gas caps diameter is to the diameter of a 3rd gen gas door.

Definitely some cutting & welding going on, to get it to fit & look right. Just remember......NOTHING is impossible.
