It's from one of our vendors too so he must be adding the pin up art as the pricy part. I am thinking the cap is a permanent mount to cars with an external fender mounted cap. The offset base looks like it can rotate to a position that either facilitates use or maybe orients the art correctly. Looks like it then uses the two clips and screws to attach permanently to the gas tank filler neck. When refilling it looks like the chrome part is hinged so it must lift up.

I don't see any obvious sign of a lock so not sure why it is a locking cap although there was an old company called Lek-Tro Lock which had some electrically operated commercial door locks. It is owned by someone else now and still in business but since that is made by a company called Lek-Tro Lox I wonder if there could be something like that involved..
