Customs What car had the first hidden gas filler? What other cars had them?

I'm thinking the 49 Cad was the first car that had a hidden gas filler behind the tail light. Was it? For other cars that had hidden gas fillers other then behind the license plate, 56 & 57 Chev and 57 Olds only come to mind. There must be others, I just can't think of any. If you know of one or have a picture of one please post it.

 

60 caddy was fun to find, in the middle of the rear "grill". I bet there were other caddys too.

lots of 60s-70s gms had them behind the license plate.

 

model T, under the seat.

 

My 64 Dodge Custom 880 had one under the chrome panel between the tail lights covered by a door.

 

1956 Chevrolet, behind the tailight.

 

My '57 Cadillac had behind left tail light. '56-'57 Continental Mk IIs had them behind left tail light as well

 

Just found this. Cadillac in '41 and more

Under a flap on the fender don't count???

 

Great to know a Chevy guy knows that, October 1908, the first of the 15 Million hidden gas cap cars rolled off the assembly line. The feature was so missed that Ford brought it back in 1932-34 for use on truck cabs. Bob

 

Most of the cars around 1900 had the motor under the seat along with the fuel tank.

 

46 caddy did..

 

60 - 63 T Birds......behind the license plate.

 

58 Chev, in panel between the trunk and the bumper.

 

Had a Crosly in the late '50s, the bottom of the drivers seat was the gas tank.

 

Thirty-six Chevy truck, maybe 1-1/2 ton

 

1958 Oldsmobile in the left tail light housing.

 

56 Continental Mark II

 

58 chevy's had them behind a panel below the trunk lid.

 

Ford put them behind the tag starting in '52, except for station wagons and sedan deliveries which had them behind a door on the left quarter panel.

 

41 Fords had them under a flap in the fender.
