I've edited some of my earlier posts, I had the caps bass ackwards! Most 1970 model Challengers were non-E.C.S. and would use the "NOT VENTED" locking gas cap. This sealed gas cap would prevent gas from exiting the tank. The gas tank was "vented" to atmosphere by other means. 1970 model Challengers with "N95" and all 1971 models would use the "PRESSURE/VACUUM" locking gas cap. This gas cap would allow air to escape under pressure or enter under vacuum conditions. The gas caps on the E.C.S. (basically - sealed fuel systems) equipped were the "safety valve" for (excessive?) pressure or vacuum.

Anybody know how the two pieces of "pot-metal" can be removed from the "chromed" steel piece?
6bbl try using a small flat screw driver and work carefully prying between the pot metal top or bottom and steel center piece, also you can try grabbing the pot metal pieces and try rocking back and for in opposite directions to get them to part from the center. I have taken several apart for replating this way.
