Default LeMans Gas cap solution

Having read the many threads about the LeMans gas cap or rather the lack of a gas cap, I have found a solution that may work. I visited my local salvage yard today and stumbled on a gas tank nesk that is about 6" long and whose to neck is tappered to snuggly fit inside the cap assembly. The top taper will be bonded into place and it will also fit into the standard LeMans pipe reducer allowing the use of the gas overflow neck nipple. Please don't ask what kind of car it came from because the raw jewel was found along a stack of old heaps. On the way home I bought a locking gas sap from Napa for $8.00 and I think I have solved the need for the old tennis ball under the LeMans gas cap. Hope this idea is helpful. Chuck
