Features Hot Rod Hubcaps

That will look great. Very mid-fifties.

i'm suprised that there was more than a few car running these 'covers'
i own multiple set of both & early 50's Pontiac sammy"s

 

Somebody scan the cover of the 1980's magazine Classic & Custom with the baby blue '32 3-window. That is a HOT ROD with full covers.

 

I like em. I'm running the 16" Lyons. Wish I could find some 16" flippers.

 

I had four 57 caddy's on my 51 ford I have for sale here on the hamb...but took them off and they will go on my 49 chevy fleetline now...at one time, I turned down 500.00 for the set.

 

Olds wheel covers on my A.

 

Forgot all about this thread. Thanks for bumping it, well deserved!
16" Lyon all the way

 

Here's an early picture of my Coupe...and what it looks like now

 

My friend Tony recently put the full fenders back on his coupe and just for a change of pace he added full caps to the wheels. It makes for a great look.

Oh boy! That looks great! I really like this 'version'.

I've always liked the rounder, plainer styles like this. In the just wondering department, are there any miss-matches between vintage full covers and the valve stem placement on newer rims? Gary

 

I always thought Concretemans 33 Chevrolet looked really good with spinners.

 

the CAVALIER COUPE- built by Monte Trone 1951..Long Beach CA

 

This thread is so cool and since it came up again I'll add some more.....

 

Bumping this as I prepare to order a set of WWWs for my truck. I have also been debating some full wheel covers. Are 16" full covers uncommon?

 

Man, just last night I was thinking "You dont see many shots of the Monte Trone coupe." Cool.

 

Heres one nobodys ever seen.

 

Nice! Explain please. Yours?

 

not yet. This is how it looks today. Still located in socal. Shamless plug: Here is our clubs support shirt featuring founding Cavalier member Monte Trone's coupe. We have a few left click the link below: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=709449&highlight=support+shirt+trone

 

WOW! Looks like not a hell of a lot has been done to mess it up over the years. Great to see how many of these cars survived the '80s/'90s more or less intact. Hope that doesnt change...

Here's my take on Hubcaps on Hot Rods
Mike

 

Here's a Few For you...
Always loved this Gold Ford 5w, an Old Hot Rod build, The 40 Ford sedan is my Old Man's - At least I Classify it as a Hot Rod but could be a bit OT for some of you... The Model A Roadster is Paul Straus, and the Flamed 34 Ford 5W is Leroy's, both out of Buffalo. I Dig Hubcaps on Hot Rods.
