I have my first piece of heavy equipment!  a 1956 HD5.    She ain't pretty, but she looks and sounds like she'll do the job.   The old motor runs smooth as can be.  Amazing to me really.

Right off, I need a radiator cap and a gas cap.  Probably more, but those are needed now.

Can anyone point me to some sources for these?  My Google-Fu skills are letting me down a bit.

Thanks!
Mike

Any decent local parts house should carry a commercial sized(Semi Truck) Radiator cap, 4-7lb.  Fuel cap is Pipe Thread but cannot remember the pipe size.  Will need a loose fit and then vent drill the cap.  Might try General Gear or Zimmerman Tractor first,  Minnpar will have a p/n but do not count on a OE Style available.

It's a non pressure radiator - more old style gas cap type cap with internal wings to lock onto neck .
 A 2" pipe thread on tank , I had a Peterbuilt fuel tank cap on mine for years and it fit great .
