Help Identify a Hubcap Flipper!! Thanks!!

I bought this pair and the third from a local guy, picked em up at the hamb drags and would like to find a fourth... I might be running skirts so i might only need 2 but I'd rather have the option.

The hubcap is 59 impala I believe, but I'd like to know what the flipper came from?? Aftermarket??

 

Those are definitely aftermarket. I had a set years ago that i wish i still had. I've got a JC Whitney catalog from the late 50's that has those in it. Very cool.

 

They look like you could rip up the quarters on a '42 Ford ragtop with them...


Seriously though, they're pretty cool, I could see running them. I would have suspected aftermarket too, especially if they're cast potmetal with cheap chrome.

 

Povertyflats asked if they came off my chariot!! Maybe I should pm Ben Hur??

 

there call vikings im looking for a set of two but have to be 15' four bars like this

 

Rare Vikings caps, came in 14 and 15 inch, 3 bar and 4 bar.

 

I think those wheel covers are actually 58 Chevy, not 59.

 

They are very cool!

 

Saw those on a movie called Ben Hur

 

hey i'm missing some props from my vintage outboard collection ... gosh chad your garage wall must be covered with asst. covers your not using

being viking stuff i have no interest nor would they have been laying around the area openly
