Looking for gas cap locking ring

My machine shop made a mistake and killed the locking ring that attaches to my 62 filler neck. Apparently the design was changed to a single piece where mine is two pieces sandwiched together with a seal. I see on falconparts.com you get the ring when you buy a filler neck but it is for the ranchero. Is the ranchero ring the same for the sedan?

I just need the ring. Anybody out there that could just sell me the ring or do you know where in Washington State there is a junkyard with Falcons?

Any help is much appreciated!

I "think" they are the same. They bolt on and the 4 bolt holes are elongated to allow you to rotate the plate adjust the cap, once tightened, for level (to match body lines or trim if installed).

I know I had one or two of them. I used one doing an in-bed Ranchero gas filler recently, so I'm not 100% sure I have another at this point. Sadly, it may be one of those things I sent to the metal scrap bin at the recyclers after out recent swap meet. Or they went for free to someone at the swap meet.

I have it on my to-do list to dig around my bins for something else (this being on Wednesday, so if you can await this schedule, I'll look to see if I still have one. If I do, you can simply have it. Otherwise I think you can get the filler from FalconParts and toss what you don't need.

Something else you may want to consider, which many people do (they can ring-in with pictures if so-inclined), is to transfer the filler to inside the trunk using a late 60's F100 pickup truck in-cab filler neck. Simple bracket to hold the truck filler tube vertical. The original gas cap attached externally in a permanent fashion, though is now non-functional. Solves the paint damage due to slosh out while filling or driving.

Thanks, I appreciate your help.

I agree. When comparing photos of the Ranchero part it looks identical, but Jeff at Falconparts claims they are different. I might have to pull that trigger and get the Ranchero part and modify if necessary, but I thought I would ask around first.

No hurry here and thanks again.

I think I have a sedan filler neck in my garage somewhere. It has the piece that holds the cap on.

Is that what you need?

Yes, the piece that holds the gas cap on. Here is what is looks like..

Like the one I just took of one I dug out of the garage?

Yep, that looks like it. But I see you are out in Deer Park so not just a simple drive from Woodinville to meet up with you.

I can stick the lock ring in a envelope and mail it to you.

how much do you want for it?

Nothing. Just tell me where to send it.

Way cool, thanks:

Thanks Nathan, the ring was waiting for me after I returned from camping over the weekend.
