Art & Inspiration Hubcap Picture thread.

Anyone know???

 

Hard to believe something that lives in a cornfield would have something fancy.

 

'40 Continental the family had.

 

are those 1st chevy dog dishes 10 1/8? like on '57 chevys? if so do you wanna sell em?

 

I'll measure 'em tomorrow and PM you the results. I plan on keeping only a handful of the hubcaps and wheelcovers.

 

55 Pontiac caps on my car and on my kids wall............well he IS my kid. =OP Stripes by Altered pilot and GV Gordon.

Heres a few.

 

Any guesses on the above covers? ^^^^
I thought they'd look cool when i first saw them. put bullets on them and now have some doubts. i've never seen anyone else running these.
Anyone?

Does anyone know, if there is such a thing as 14 inch 'Ripple/Flying Saucer' caps? i'd really like to run some on my van but i need 14's!

 

great thread bump to top for hopefully more pictures?????

 

I ran these adapted baby moons



for coupla years before swapping to these '54 NewYorkers



but I'm considering putting them back on next year on chrome smoothies for a wilder early '60's look.

these are called "Vikings" they are an aftermarket hubcap and very highly sought after by the veterano's in the lowrider community.

even if you keep the center put the 14" caps for sale on ebay, you'll be glad you did.

Had these '63 Vette covers lyin' around and thought they filled the bill.

That does look pretty sharp, I've always thought they looked out of place on the '63 Corvettes though.

 

Did you get these from Mooneyes years ago? I remember they used to sell them, always thought you could make a sweet set of caps with them, now they no longer carry them.

 

Some '57 Fords, I believe, with spinners I got at a swap meet years ago. for sale in the classified section.. hehe

 

A different spin on smoothie centres

 

Here are some I have hanging on the wall at the moment.

Here's mine - Larry Watson's style.

 

Great thread. When I was a kid in the early 60s a friend of my grandparents had a collection of center medallions from 50s wheel covers, he gave me some, wish I still had them.
