The new internal piece got a smaller hole for the neck, and flattened out some to give the mounting surface you needed, and then was glassed/glued inside the body after drilling the 4" hole in the body. Is that right? I really like the way it turned out, and I kind of wish I had done something like that for mine to eliminate opening the trunk to fuel up.

Sorry about messing with your mind Roger, but you pretty much nailed it on how i did it.. just put some good duct tape down and laid the glass over it then moved it under and glued it with corvette panel glue. and like you said i did it for two reasons, first i like the SS gas cap look and second the gas cap was in the trunk on my last Roadster and like you had to open the trunk to gas up...
