oh, btw, the 65-66 center caps will fit as well, as long as they are scott drake.

This is the first retro-mod I've seen that I like. Great job!

Sound Wave... Sorry I missed your question... As far as my trunk bling is concerned, I actually made that myself. I purchased the plain polished billet flip down faux gas cap from UPR and took a 1968 Gas Cap emblem I found on eBay... I used a cut off wheel to cut the posts off the emblem and then used Permatex Clear Silicone adhesive to affix the emblem onto the door. I use Mothers Billet polish to keep it looking good (when I have time). So far no problems. There's no rust I can see and the emblemn has held up for a year so far.

Thanks again for the help.
