Nah, they're perfectly round like the picture below. If you've ever seen one you know the difference.

K-cars saved Chrysler and were going to save the world, as I recall.

1983 electric gas cap

Not sure how it works, but there is one on my 83 Buick Riviera convertible. Original owner disabled it.

Yes, and the gas cap is under the rear license plate. The gas cap says "electric gas cap" but there is not any wiring back there.

I've noticed you cannot find one to buy.

3 pages and no one mentions the shitty roof liners that drooped?

My '80 Crown Vic was an ex-police interceptor, and everything about that car was awesome...except it had "a saggy diaper that leaks" for a roof.

When staples didn't make it any better, I finally tried this spray adhesive shite and it made dirt and cigarette smoke stick to it, so the roof looked like someone wiped their arse with it after a few days.
