Is that an answer or a question Jack?

Yes it was behind the left tailight I think and it flipped up....

How about a '57 Chevy Wagon....or sedan delivery...

GM did like to hide the gas fill on many cars.....

In my gas station days it was often a challenge to find it....

Nothing less than the right answer Jack.....

I have to stir the cobwebs to get this stuff to pop out...and it is not necessarily correct...

Didn't a '57 Chevy wagon or delivery have a piece of chrome moulding that was hinged and swung out sideways on the tailfin? Thats what I am thinking was where it was...

Hinged license plates were pretty popular...

I owned a '58 Chevy and have no recollection of where that one was...One of my mini-fleet of beater cars.......I liked to buy cars real cheap....get them running...use them for a while and ditch 'em or sell 'em.....That '58 was pretty nasty but cleaned up fine with Comet....LOL

Rich - All '57 Chevies had the gas filler door located in the left fin above the tailight .....
