Fuel door / fitting replacement

Good day Barth crew! I'm searching for information on replacing this fuel door fitting/assembly (?) for my mid-70s 23 footer. No luck at any local shops or online so far. Before I go on a deep dive or find someone to custom build an aluminum, or 3D print and ABS one, anybody know where I might find one of these? The original has no door on it/doesn't lock but I'm fine with anything that will do the job, look decent, keep the water out!

Ironboy! I read your note and took it as a challenge. I found some things you might like. Google Ford part BC3Z-9B213-A. It is a fuel filler hose support for F-250 to F-550 trucks. Also look at this page: https://www.fillernecksupply.c...z-9034-eh-bc3z9034c/

There are several items you will be interested, made from plastic or aluminum, and with different angles of fuel neck being supported.

Happy Motoring!
Matt

the website also has the supports listed by angle. For instance, this is for the 42 degree angle. https://www.fillernecksupply.c...eck-Protectors-Bezel

Matt, thanks a bunch! I'll get some good measurements including the angle. I'm pretty confident I'll find a solution there.
