1942aerosedan Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 02/13/03 Posts: 65 Loc: Moss Landing,California	Does the 3800 have the same gas filler neck inlet hole as the 3100 in other words will the gas caps interchange ?

Mothertrucker Oil Can Mechanic Registered: 01/05/02 Posts: 644 Loc: VCCA # 37127 No Rust Arizona	The 1947 & very early 1948 Advance Design trucks had the gas tank mounted under the bed & the filler neck came out through the bed side.There were no filler necks on the cab for those years. Late 1948 - 1955 first series trucks had the gas tank mounted inside of the cab behind the seat . Not sure if the bed mounted filler necks used the same cap as the cab mounted tanks but.... all of the cab mounted filler necks {regardless of tonnage} for late '48- 55 first series were identical & the caps were the same.

Sam_Russell Shade Tree Mechanic Registered: 07/14/11 Posts: 41 Loc: Sun Prairie WI	The cap on my 38 truck was interchangeable with my Dads 71. I thought that they were all the same? _________________________ 1938 Chevy One Ton Truck 1962 Corvair Monza Wagon 1964 Corvair Spyder Coupe
