58 59 60 61 62 Corvette Fuel Cap "fe" Fuller Emerson on 2040-parts.com
Merrimack, New Hampshire, United States

This is a used Fuller Emerson vented fuel cap for 1958-1962 Corvettes. I believe that this replacement vented cap can be used in place of the non-vented assembly line cap. This cap looks exactly like the assembly line 3751027 Fuller Emerson since this cap does have the "F" and "E" stamped on the twister part but it also has the word "VENTED" which would be incorrect for an original assembly line 1958-1962 Corvette cap. This cap measures about 2.33" in diameter while the inner part with the two "ears" measuring about 1.35" in diameter. I have not determined the actual GM part number for this vented "FE" cap but it might be GM # 3787291 but that is just an educated guess.
According to my Chevrolet Parts History (for service parts, not assembly line parts) GM # 3751027 (the "FE" cap, non-vented) was replaced with GM # 3772749 (Stant cap, embossed "VENTED") in Aug. 1960 which was replaced with GM # 3787291 (manufacturer unknown) in Aug. 1961 which was then replaced with GM # 3814436 (Stant cap, embossed "ANTI SURGE" & "VENTED) in June 1962. My 1963 Chevrolet Parts Catalog (Oct. 1962) lists GM # 3814436 in Gr. 3.028 as a replacement fuel cap for 53-62 Corvettes and 58-63 Chevrolet Passenger cars with a description of "vented". This used fuel cap is in good condition. It is suggested that the potential buyers do some research on the NCRS Forum about the 58-62 Corvette fuel caps before bidding. Shipping will be via the USPS Priority Mail or USPS 1st Class Mail, fully insured. At the end of the auction I will get the actual shipping cost from the USPS website based on the zip code of the winning bid. |

Brighton Speed Trials under threat
Thu, 02 Jan 2014Nearly 8,000 people have signed a petition to see the Brighton Speed Trials return in 2014. The event, which dates back to 1905, was cancelled last year while an inquest determined the cause of a fatal motorbike crash that occurred in 2012. Now organisers are urging the local council to give them permission to return to the Speed Trials to Brighton’s Madeira Drive this summer.
