Radiator Cap restoration 1933

[FrankWest]

I didn't think I would ever get the radiator Cap Apart...But.....
Eureka!!! After applying blow torch for a long time but the screw did not become red, and then freezing radiator cap overnight was able to get the screw out! It was wonderful! At my age it is the most fun I can have! well almost! I grabbed onto the large screw with locking pliers and held the radiator cap in left hand and hit the pliers to unscrew the large screw.
Fantastic. I wanted to post this to help someone else that may have the same problem..

Now, I just have to find someone that sells the paper gasket. That heavy plastic gasket is NO GOOD.
