radiator cap for an f6

I'm usually on the diesel forum here but now I need some help regarding an old 1949 f6. I am in the process of servicing the cooling system (drain, flush, t-stat, hoses, etc.) but can't find a radiator cap to replace the old one. The cap is quite large and parts stores have nothing in stock or their catalogs that seems comparable. Im pretty sure the radiator is original but I could be wrong. Can anyone here point me in the right direction?


Thanks

Good numbers here: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post14246066

I got my cap at NAPA. Be sure to stick with a 4 psi cap!
