    Anyone recognize these wheel covers? For 16" wheels. Advertised as possibly Shore Calvenar. ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1460599130.713358.jpg ImageUploadedByH.A.M.B.1460599145.519359.jpg

    I like them, possibly a Namsco/National product. 16" full covers are a rare bird and those are pretty.

    They look a lot like early 50s Oldsmobile wheel covers. The spinners may have been added on.

    They do look like 50-53 Olds caps but those are for 15" and they have a crest stamped in the center that would be visible from the back side. Plus these appear to be chromed steel and the Olds caps are stainless.
