    Cap

    I am trying to find out what the original gas cap for an early pre 88 car looked like ,was an optional plastic style availiable at the time?I think very few cars retain their original today.

            Cap

            My 87' also has a plastic cap, I'm assuming the metal caps where a pre 85' thing.

                my car has had multiple owners, so it could've been swapped out, but my 87 vert has a metal cap.
