As I said before. The seal between the tank extension and filler neck is a cork packing.
For a good picture see page 25 in the Feb. 1935 Service News....Is available on the old cars manual site.
If you are unable to find that send me your email address and I will scan it.
Just remember it is a cork packing ring. They used cork for every thing yearss ago. You could probably make a packing out of neoprene rubber or some moder material.
It was only used on 1935 and 1936 cars with cuilt-in trunks so no one wwill bother to reproduce it.

Can a modern gasoline resistant O-ring be substituted for the cork packing? How about a neoprene round doughnut type gasket? Some cork that is available is not the best quality.

In looking at the picture it would require an afully large O ring.
Looks to be about the size of an exhaust pipe to manifold packing, only square cross section.

I made my own. O'Relly Auto Parts or Nappa Auto Parts has a gasket material that is excellent. Comes in a sheet. Make a template from paper. Trace onto material and cut out. I used double thick. Works great and not all that expensive.
