I probably need to have a gas cap cast for my 740 and am looking for a good foundry to do a one off sand casting. Any suggestions for a reliable outfit? Anyone had experience with Leerock Foundry of Ontario California?http://castmetalparts.com/Home_Page.php

Did you contact American Arrow in suburban Detroit?
Don and his son Dan own the place and I would not be surprised if they had a newly cast one laying around as Don owns two 740's - one a phaeton and the other a club sedan. Call (248) 435-6115 in the eastern time zone. Most of the castings he does are in stainless steel, then chrome plated. http://americanarrowcorp.com/ Hope you get what you need.

You might also look into Firebird Bronze in Oregon. Joe had them cast some some prewar AC vents in bronze using some wax molds I made. Joe said the vents turned out decent. They are willing to work in small quantities although I believe the vent minimum was a quantity of two. They also offer sand casting but I didn't check to see if they work with metals other than bronze.http://www.firebirdbronze.com
