I haven't bought one in years, but I'm pretty sure I bought it at the local Napa. I would think any of the parts stores should be able to get a vented gas cap.

DO you just want one that will work & look similar? or do you want one concours correct?
this is what it looks like,except I painted it,

says ''Vented'' at the top & ''anti-surge'' at the bottom,

This one looks just like it,with the correct wording ,,,& at the bottom says it fits lots of old fords. I think they were pretty much all one universal size back then,

there are others that will work that dont look exactly right.
