Helping a friend with a 71 Barracuda and have a question. Is there a particular screw size for the filler tube for the gas tank ?. He found 4 but not sure if they are the correct ones. Thanks john.

No captive washer on the filler neck to tail panel as far as I know. There are captive washers on the rubber floor seal.

Does anybody have pictures of an original car using captive washers on the tail panel ?
