Cool, Standard oil also gave away or sold valve stem caps that were a red or gold crown signifying the red or gold crown pumps that dispensed the regular (red) or premium (gold) gas.

That is really cool.

Greg, I think somebody reproduces those valve stem caps. I am pretty sure I have seen them in some catalog.

My friend ordered some. He got a set of gold ones for his Riviera and got me a red set which I put on my Vista Beater.
