Re: Fueling a '40
Mac's has a rubber flap-like protector that fits over the filler neck like a bib to protect the fender.
An even worse problem on the big trucks -- my friend's '39 1 1/2 ton will percolate gas out the filler when a full tank expands on a hot day, particularly when parked at the curb. Saw a freshly-restored '40 COE at a car show once that had a stream of rippled lacquer down the side of the cab as a result of this.
