Re: 57 Fuel Door in Bed

Thats exactly what i was talking about ,makes the bed look alot better then a filler tube sticking up.Yours looks prefect what does the rest of your truck look like?

Re: 57 Fuel Door in Bed

Those are also available in several different styles at boat supply stores.
Search Gander Mountain online for "fuel fittings and hardware" and you'll see several different ones.
