I call them hubcaps, but I know it's technically a wheel cover. Saw this photo on Facebook, I can't identify the hubcap. Anyone know?
Yeah and that particular style was on Pontiacs, Oldsmobiles, and Cadillacs. I'm not so sure about Buick I think they were different...
Come on, fellas! I have 10 '50-'53 Olds hubcaps. That is not what this is! I suppose it might be an aftermarket cap - I have a pair of knockoff Cadillac aftermarket caps that look similar but the caps on that car are curvier and ***ier. No one recognizes the countours??
Not Olds, not Caddy, not Packard. I'm ***uming the center medallion was custom painted but I can't identify the cap itself.
I'm guessing they are the sombrero aftermarket wheel covers. They are a very kool, I like them better than the Caddy's because you can see the rim of the wheel. I have a couple of damaged ones at the station. I'll check them out and see. Brad Masterson ran them on his fastback.
That is the only photo I have ever seen of that particular car. If I had more photos to work with I could probably figure it out.
