Simple part and a simple question, but I'm having a hard time locating a drain plug and washer for a 54 60S fuel tank.  Any suggestions? 
Thanks, Bob

A 49 uses a 5/8"-18 pitch thread drain plug, which I assume is the same as a 54 ?

Someone should have one here ?

The 1949 to 1965 Cadillacs used the same 5/8" x 18 flange head gas tank drain plug.  It is also the same drain plug bolt used for the oil pans for the same year range. 

In the master parts book they are listed under Parts group 1.453 for the Oil Pan  and parts group 3.015 for the fuel tank but both have the same Part #130 7238. 

In having parted 39 1963 & 1964 Cadillacs I have have a box full of VG+ ones for $5 each + s/h including the copper ring gasket.  I can ship first class for $2 or 2 to 3 day priority for $6. total would be $7 or $11 depending on shipping preference. If interested in one of my VG used ones email me at jasonedge@nc.rr.com
