    FS: VINTAGE Chrome Gas Caps (OEM) Made in Germany


    Up for sale is a wide variety of beautiful, vintage, NEW IN THE BOX locking gas caps. However, I really have no idea what they fit as they are in a variety of different sizes. These have been sitting in a barn for 30 years, so boxes are dusty and caps may have a small scratch here and there, but for the most part these are ALL in excellent to brand new condition.


    (BTW Any help on identifying model match ups I’m sure would be appreciated)


    All items are CHROME unless otherwise stated. All are manufactured in Germany by a company called HK unless otherwise stated. I believe these are OEM as most are stamped with the VW insignia. I have no idea which caps will fit which vehicles (IM’s REQUESTING THIS INFO WILL BE IGNORED) so plz do your homework before ordering, as I cannot accept returns due to non-fitment. I have taken quite a bit of time to photograph and measure each cap with digital calipers to assist you in sizing your current gas cap up to these.


    Please refer to the names I’ve given them (even if they’re cheesy) to avoid confusion when ordering.


    All caps are $25 each and include FREE SHIPPING to the 48 states.
    Please refer to my diagram for measurement purposes and explanations






    All boxes are the same except for size and part numbers:
