i drive my mustang daily, to school, work, errands, etc. etc.
on monday, i drove it to and form school, and ran many errands, filled up my gas tank and then went home.
last night i was getting in it to go for a drive, and it started right up as usual, but then started shaking a little bit and died.
i had to pick up my girlfriend from work, so i hopped in another car. i was too crunched for time to see what was wrong. today, on further inspection, i found that the accelerator pump wasn't pumping any gas into the valves. so i pulled the pump to carb fuel line. dry. i checked the like from the firewall to the pump. dry. checked the line from the sending unit to the steel line. dry. i rapped my knuckles on the tank and to my surprise, it clanged. empty.
someone siphoned all the gas out of my tank!
anyways, my point being, is this:

the only locking gas cap made for 65-66 mustangs? i think it's pretty damn ugly . . .
are there other alternatives to this? are there different ones made? i'd be interested to know, but if i have to, i'll buy this one. it only takes a couple of tanks to be emptied before that cap is worth it's value in fuel.
