All I know is that the thing looks like a '30-31 with a slightly longer skirt below the knurled part. My roadster, though, is happily wearing a model 46 radiator cap put there by a previous owner...
Dang. Never thought of heisting Spadaro's cap!
I have done some poking around in the few booths at Hershey with large stocks of original Model A parts, hoping to find that one of their '30-31 caps was taller than the others, but so far no luck. I should start taking along a Model A cap both as a size template and as trading stock in case the B one turns up on an A.
