Default Found this weird sm oil cap.

Looking through some stuff today, found this oil cap, with the rivet installed backwards. - Weird!

I was just informed, that this is a 53-54 6cyl oil cap as was used on the Corvettes.
That is how they were made back then.
So it is special, but not that rare.

It's rare enough. eBay ---> Buy it Now $1,000.00

BTW, unless I'm smoking something, isn't the "S" headed
rivet upside-down?

Yes, it is - that's the way Stant made them for the '53-'54 six-cylinder Corvette.
