I've Been Looking & LOOKING, All over the Place, and Unable to Find Either of These Items, so, I'm Here to Ask, WHAT Do Any of You Fine Folks Use to Replace These Items? 
The Rivots, are the Ones that go to the GASKET, NOT The Metal to the Body of the Car. They go AROUND the Neck to the Body???? I don't know How else to explain this. THEIR Part number, is (as Near as I Can Figure) Group, 4.141-3 Pt. #400 2185. (6 of these) 
The Rubber Bumper things, are, Group 4.141.24 Pt. # 400 2003  (2 of them)

Firstly, Does ANYBODY, Know Where I Could Get The OEM Versions of These? 

Secondly, IF Not, WHAT Does ANYONE Needing these Use, and Maybe WHERE to Get Them???

Many MANY Thanks for Any Help, it Really IS Appreciated.........

George,

Sounds like you are talking about the rivets that connect the spill tank to the body, gasket is sandwiched in-between and the rubber bumpers for the fuel door??

The actual filler neck to the spill tank is also connected with rivets.

I have the special filler neck to spill tank rivets and spill tank to body.  The door grommets are very hard to find, I might have those.....I think I bought an extra set when I did my Matador X Coupe last November....just let me know.  That spill tank is unique for Coupe and so is the filler neck!!

I THINK You're correct Ross. 
 Ever Since I Got the Car Back, I Haven't Been able to Get a PROPER Fuel Cap to Work on It. The One That WHOMEVER Put on, is NOT The Correct One, and Will Actually Spill Fuel out it After It's FILLED, (So Obviously, I DON'T "Fill" It Anymore.) I Just HATE the Smell Of Todays Fuel EVERY Time I Walk in to my Shop, Because The Fuel Cap is So Loose And Poorly Fitting! I Bought a Brand New Locking Gas Cap Last Year, Thought *I* Messed up Ordering it, because it Would NOT Fit. So, I Ordered One That Was Supposed to Be THE Replacement, SAME Problem, It Won't Fit Either. The Cap Runs in to The Top side BOTTOM of The Fuel Fill Area, Where The Door Closes Over. So, I Figured IF I Could Remove The Rivots, and Adjust The Fill Neck DOWN UP a Hair, Maybe a 1/4, to 3/8 of an Inch, It SHOULD Cure The Issue.

Also, Those Goofy Little Bumper Things, have Gone Rock Hard too, and Either Shrunk, or they Replaced them With The Wrong Ones, I DON'T Know for Sure. The Rubber Bumpers, are SO Hard, It Seems Like they're Not Doing ANYTHING, Kinda Like Slamming the Door Against a ROCK!

YES Please, IF You Have ANY/Either of These, I'd GLADLY Buy them From You.
PLEASE, Let Me Know......

THANKS AGAIN Ross, For EVERYTHING!!!!!!

Body question - "where can I get" - so moved to the body area.
