An 'spare' gas gap, carefully placed between cowl and cowl vent/cover (next to the right windshield wiper shaft/mount).

My Dad picked the truck up new at the assembly plant and noticed it there on the way home with it, he/we left it there until one of us lost the one that came on the tank.

I plan on putting it back as one of the last steps of it's restoration, everybody that knows the truck knows about the cap so it wouldn't be right not to.

We figured somebody was having fun that day (at the assembly plant) because I also later found a radio delete plate (painted the truck's color, not a scratch on it) carefully wedged between the gas tank and it's mounting flange, the way it was positioned, there's no way it would've gotten there unless somebody put it there on purpose.
