1930-U30 Hub Caps and Radiator Cap
Try Andy Bernbaum?s, don?t know if they have your parts on hand, but they have a lot of Mopar stuff! Very fast service and very friendly and reliable people! I never had problems with them in all these years, but others had when sending back unuseful parts. (See "buyer beware")

(from Bill Ward): ?For whatever it is worth, my opinion is that the two best parts suppliers out there are:

NEIL RIDDLE -  (206) 285-6534 -  

Neil is a pleasure to work with and often has stuff that nobody else has.  He works hard to keep his stock fresh and he always has something new.  Neil doesn't have a website but I've never had any problem reaching him by email or by phone. ?

TONY CIPPONERI usually recommends:

?TRY G & G MOPARS AT 909 825 1231 OR FAX THEM AT 909 825 0307?

Todd Fitch recommends:

For a radiator cap, unless you luck into a good used one, you will have to go repro.  (Reason - the original material used does not stand the test of time!) The only two venders that I know of are:

Don Sommer - Chrome plated Stainless Steel - (248) 435-6115,

Jay Fisher  - I think his are Chrome plated Brass-? (732) 388-6442

We bought my 30U radiator cap from Jay Fisher, he advertises in the back on the Bulletin. We paid 450 bucks for two of them.

I purchased a radiator cap from Don Sommer and I'm very satisfied.  Had it about 2 years now.
