    I'm going to change the look of my coupe this spring.
    One of the changes is moving to a 1946 Merc hub cap.

    Will these fit on my Wheel Vintique wheels? Before I drop $400 on them I'd like to make sure they fit.

    Does anyone have a picture on what they look like on this application?
    I saw a picture from East Bay Speed and Custom but I can't tell if they are running Wheel Vintique wheels.
    Thanks

  2. i think any wheel that accepts `40-`48 Ford and up to `56 ford pickup caps will take `46 mercury caps

  6. Lothian- Are those a regular Wheel Vintiques 'Gennie" wheel on your Roadster?
    They look great BTW.

    Thanks for posting some pictures. The more I see those caps, the more I like them.

    I just bought a set from Mac's for $77 each. The best part is I can run across the border to pick them up without a delivery fee.

    I have a perfect set of stainless Vintiques '47/'48 Mercury caps that fit the "Gennie" and "smoothie" wheels perfectly, hand lettered in original colors. Would consider selling if anyone's still looking.
