Aluminum finned 100mm Blau gas cap feeler
Konnichiwa Porsche amigos,
Quite a few years ago I had the opportunity to buy an original aluminum finned 100mm Blau gas cap. The price was high. I hesitated and missed out. That indecision has haunted me ever since.
Even if you don’t have a center fill set up like a 911R you might have an RSR or ST inspired car with a competition gas tank. Both could use this type of Blau cap. I think an A or pre A 356 could use one too.
If you use one of these caps it’s probably a steel version. Aluminum looks SO much better than the steel. I'm told long ago they would pop up from time to time. Nowadays, they are nearly impossible to find.
Vintage Porsche restoration expert Nate Cantwell and I are exploring re-creating this Blau cap. He has a metal fabricator in mind to create the tooling needed.
No idea what the price would be yet and exact profile of the fin is yet to be determined.
Are there any folks here that would be interested?
Post a response if you are. The photos below are originals from Armando Serrano‘s website.
