    I don't remember what these were. 53 Chrysler? Desoto? Something close to that, with a chrome bullet stuck in the center.

    I run 55/56 lancers on my Buick. And I picked up these Pontiac caps cheap a few months ago. I just need to figure out if I want a bullet or something else for the center IMG_8371.png IMG_8369.png

    My favorite was the two piece, hub cap and the glamor ring from the 49/51 Mercurys. The clear ones, not the ones that said “ Mercury Eight” on them. I have some sets of both, but no pictures! Just my preference!

    I think the ones that say Mercury Eight are '49s & the plain ones are '50.

    Bringing this back up ....
    The '53 Stude cover with the 3 point star is early production only - Mercedes "asked" them to quit using it.
