No Good Deed Goes Unnoticed!!! [/ QUOTE ] You, of all people, should know what George meant before you paraphrased him!  Not to undermine your gesture, George, but... I stopped at a local independent tire store last week and picked up around thirty of the caps free. There were probably another fifty or so still laying in various trays and boxes in his place. I guess I'll put them on the Chevelle, the Nova, both trailers, my truck, both mowers, all three bicycles,....  Oops, maybe I'd better make a return visit!OK, what's the next thing we can't live without???  One of the the best thing about this site? We can all be anal about minute details........ and still seem somewhat NORMAL when compared to other members here!!!

Re: Dill caps
 I paid $10 for them on EPaY, and thought I got away with something I'll get in line for some from George for my '69 Nova though

Re: Dill caps
Last year when I was having my car judged at Carlisle Camaro Nationals, I was in need of a set. I stopped by the local Dodge dealer and got what I needed for next to nothing.

Re: Dill caps
My youngest son is getting married to his German girlfirend next month. I found her a cheap car, and old BMW with some life left. Was doing a bunch of work on it over the weekend, as I have free use of my brother's shop on weekends. When I went to balance the wheels, lo and behold, two dill caps. Swapped them out for some smooth ones. Funny thing is, I remember seeing some on Ebay a while back. I decided someone had finally crossed the line from anal to somewhere beyond obsessive, and determined I wouldn't be that crazy to go shopping for correct valve caps!!!! What's next, I thought, launching a search for the original oil (not the brand, I mean the actual oil) that was in my car? Oh well, as long as they were free.

Re: Dill caps
Lynn,
The next thing would be locating a tank of 1969 air for the tires.  Verne
