Replacement gravity fill cover

Hi

Looking online I can't find a suitable replacement for this style of water fill on my 1970 overlander. Any suggestions?

Forgot to say, I'm looking for one with a vent as per the existing unit.

I had one of them on my 71 Caravel, and although I never had to replace it, I can't recall ever seeing one like it in any of the RV parts places or catalogs I have seen. But one of the speciality suppliers, such as Inland RV or Vintage Trailer supply might have one. I would give them a call. Andy at Inland RV has a huge supply of things not shown on his website, so don't just look there, call him.

It's good to know I'm not going crazy. I can find what seems to be a marine equivalent - for $30-$50 so I may just buy it anyway to see if I can make it fit..
