To those with these vent caps,
My '63 Overlander also has one - and it's on borrowed time. 3 sq ft of
high grade Lexan or
polycarbonate plastic costs at most $15 or $20 - someone's making a hefty
profit here! I have an
old milking vacuum pump, and in college worked with vacuum forming sheet
plastic as part of an
industrial technology program. It's a relatively simple process - make a
mold, heat the plastic,
suck it into the mold. If I do this for myself, would anyone be interested
- as I will then have
the means to "mass produce" more?

I do not have one of these caps on my 68 trotter, but I do have a high vacuum
pump that would be good for this application. A pizza oven makes a great
heater for sheet plastic. I think my motorhome has one of these vents.....
