111-201-551B Gas Cap, 80mm, 1953 to March 1955
This info is from a bus catalog but it's a bug number so it's probably close in dates for a bug too. |

Sorry to dredge up this old post, but I just got a cap with the same numbers on it, but it does not look like the one above and does not fit my '65 bus:
Looks like the edges on it are really rough, like someone just pushed in the sides to make it fit. I don't know. Looks like I'll keep searching. If anyone wants it, make me an offer. _________________

that is a 68-70 bus cap. i dont know why the 111 part # i think it may just be the # for the inner 1/2 of teh cap. but i have only seen them on 68-70 busses. and they wer original low mile cars
the notches probably make it easier to get off having the filler down in the hole/recess |
