Unanswered: Locking Gas Cap

Does anyone know if there is a locking gas cap available that will fit a 1974 Opel 1900/Ascona?

You can buy them aftermarket from Opel GT Source, or search yards like this:
OPEL Other Fuel Tank Cap - OPEL Other Junk Yards - salvage yards
or just wander over to your NAPA or PEP Boys store who can probably help you out.

My uncle has the nice ones for all of his wagons. Wish I could find one. Dave McCollam was the last and only person I've seen sell one of the good ones. Wish you could get them off the German Ebay, but Rob told me that the ID is different on US spec cars than Euro spec ones.

I guess I'll bring it into Pepboys since I have 2 (the original that came in a box of parts and the one that's on there now, not sure what it came off of).

Pepboys doesn't have one. I'll have to check Napa and Advanced Auto Parts tomorrow. Pepboys actually lists the Opel under Buick in their computer just in case anyone else goes in there asking for parts.
