To all that were interested in the original gas caps, Keith Lessiter has posted the following on the AC owners Club Forum. He is getting ready to place the order and needs all of those who put in orders to get money sent by the end of Nov so they can proceed. They ended up being a bit more than anticipated, but still seem reasonable to me. I know many do not have access to the ACOC forum, so if you have any questions I can relay them to Keith.
Here is a link to the thread and the update is towards the bottom of page 5.

Sorry the price has increased from initial Guestimate. But this is due to time taken to get multiple patterns correct plus assembling additional components to make a complete unit ready to fit to your AC... Ace, Aceca, Greyhound and Cobra ( please note .. rubber body seal not included)
Does anyone have a source / supply for the rubber body seal
Last but not least Thank You for your Order/s.
