    Hey guys -

    Sorry to ask this question, but I have searched everywhere for a set of caps.

    Anyone know where I can find a repop set of 57 Caddy Caps?

    I especially like the moons in the center . . .

    While I have been looking, I didn't realize that the 57 caddy rims / hubcaps had specialized mounting. Does anyone know if the McVey's repops will work on a standard ford rim?

    Thanks again guys, ya'll rock.

    And I hope everyone has a Happy and SAFE New Year.

  12. couple more things about worths, he's a super nice guy, and he has stuck with kustom parts all these years when most everyone else went to street rod parts.goes along way in my book.

    55 cad caps won't fit a stock Ford or Merc wheel, they are very deep......OLDBEET

    57 Caddy wheelcovers attach to almost any rim. It's the earlier "sombreros" that have the funky attachment ring on the back.
    Yes, the stock '57 Caddy wheelcover will attach to a standard 15" Ford rim.

    Bought the large center bullet from Moon, and it fit perfect as well.

    I think the re-pop are big $$$$$$$$$$$$$$.

    Good Luck.
