I just looked on the NAPA website and had an idea or question.  A notation on that fuel cap is that it fits US made vehicles.  Was your car made in Canada or made for export?  If so, this might be why you cannot find a cap that fits.  ??????

If you are adding turn signals to a car that did not come from the factory with turn signals, remember that you have to remove the front parking light sockets and replace them with dual filament sockets and bulbs.

Andy Bernbaum shows that 1953 & 1954 Chrysler, DeSoto, Dodge & Plymouth take the same cap.  Is this not true ?

OK!
I did some further research and was able to answer my own question!
Those are NOT license plate lights that I was questioning (either side of the license plate).
They are the Optional back-up lights offered for those years.
The license plate light is immediately under the plate.
Cheers!

Hello,
I'm attempting to ID this photo of my late father's car, which I believe to be a 1953 or 1954 ... not sure what model. What is throwing me off are the license plate lights ... which I do not see in any photos of these years.
Any ideas?  Thank you so much!

Does anyone know where to find an OEM replacement gas cap.  The ones that are recommended do not fit the 1953 Plymouth Cranbrook.  I've tried NAPA, O'Rielly's, and just about every outlet out there and they all recommend the same one and still does not fit.  Suggestions?
