chrome locking vented petrol cap

Members,

Does anyone own a chrome locking vented petrol cap that does not require an adapter ring?
I am looking for one for my 1960 Morris Minor Tourer & a 1960 Morris Minor Van
A friend told me he thought that the Van takes a different petrol cap then the Tourer.
Is this true? I just bought a Van but it is stored 100 miles from my location.
At this time I have no way of checking the tube to see if this is true.
I noticed that my Morris Minor Tourer is different from most other brand of cars.
It is an out side lip like the radiator on the car.. Other cars an inside lip on the tube.
This is the reason most caps have to have an adapter ring to make it fit & work.
If you own a locking petrol cap for a Van & Tourer can you tell me the brand & model.
I would like the information on any style of locking petrol cap with or with out the adapter ring
I will use an adapter ring if I have to - But would prefer one that did not need one if possible..

Thanks for your time & help from over the pond,

Vigil
So Cal

I reposted it here because it was not really body work.
I figured this was a better fit for the question.
OTHER - because i do not consider it part of the body.
More of an extra like a mirror of badge.

Sorted - I've moved the other thread to this forum so I'll lock this one as it's a duplicate posting. See here: http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=42648
