Well my neighborhood has been on a string of break ins an a stolen car last year as well as someone stealing my gas out of my Highboy. Good for them the tank is trashed with crud haha
anyways its not easy to walk into a parts store an find a fitting locking cap for our old trucks. What have you guys all found to work best for us? Truck still has the behind the seat tank an stock filler.

Re: Locking Gas Caps??
I tried a Stant locking cap and it rusted within weeks. Can't recommend the current caps. Had one years ago and it was great - No rust.

Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing - absolutely nothing - half so much worth doing as simply messing about in garages. (Apologies to Kenneth Grahame.)
