Olympic filler cap,
Something in the back of my mind says it was from a Rootes Group Singer Vogue.
Can anyone confirm?

Cap diameter is 2 & 7/8 inches
Pipe diameter is 1 & 3/4 inches






Regards,Dave

Dave yes as Tony's picture shows, with my car I managed to get the old top off and had it bonded on a Monza cap, so it still looks like the original.
I do buy them up when I see one as Tony says hens teeth, saying that I believe that I do have one in stock, I will check if interested

John, the picture I posted above is one of the caps from my car, it is damaged but I think I can repair it.
The spring clip that holds it shut has broken.
How much do you want for the one you may have in stock, assuming it is all ok
Perhaps you could PM me if you don't want to put the price on the forum.
I do remember seeing it included in the Spares list some time ago and I assumed it had sold as it is not in the current list.

Regards, Dave
