70 Cuda fuel filler tube with dent

[0791ADUC 1970]

Is this dent in the fuel filler tube supposed to be there?

 

[Mr Cuda]

Yes.

 

[Chryco Psycho]

I agree !

 

[0791ADUC 1970]

Yes.

Thanks Mr Cuda, Is there a purpose for it.

Back splash. That dent makes it hard to get gas in the car, with the newer style gas pumps.

My 70 Cuda doesn't have that dent. This neck isn't dented either.

Is 70 a one year only??

 

[Mr Cuda]

I thought the bump was to hold the tip of the gas nozzle in the correct position.

Thanks for everyone’s answers. I bought on from Roseville Auto Parts and it also has the dent in it

I had local Dr Dent take the dent out and it looked good

I saw that someone was making new filler necks for Mustang and Camaro. Does anyone know of a replacement filler neck that is compatible with the current gas pumps?
