    I have 2, 15 inch hubcaps that I bought at a swap meet. I only gave the guy 5 bucks for em. He didn't have a clue what they were. I am kinda partial to em. BTW, they are stainless I believe.

    I need 2 more or I might buy a set of 4 if I could find em. If I knew what they were I could search the net a little more effectively.


    I'm gonna step out on a limb and say 2 hours max for the power of the hamb to produce an answer.....;)

    Here's a pic.

    Yeah, early '50's Chrysler. I have one hanging on my garage wall. I drove a spike thru another one years ago to make a bird feeder for the little missus.
