Helping a friend clean out a guys pole shed the other day and i ran accross a set of these hubcaps, i am trying to figure out what they fit, they are alot along the lines of the 51 ish ford hubcap with the F in the middle. i was thinking lincoln but dunno, did a google image search and cant come up with anything. thanks jeff
That looks to me like a close-but-no-cigar copy of the Lincoln/Continental logo, which suggests it's an after-market cap. Cleaned up, that would look good on a custom.
It is steel but very very heavy, i still dont think aftermarket, the the big star and 4 little starts are all seperate and attatched to the round medalion in the middle. i was also thinking aftermarket because it is steel but it is built so well it doesnt scream after market like all the other aftermarket hubcaps i have and have seen. They are so very close to the same shape of the 51 ish ford caps its crazy. anyone else have any ideas?
If you google 1952 Meteor pictures you'll see a bunch of cars with them on. Super cool looking, I'd totally run those on my car if I had them.
Very cool, i tried searching the canadian fords but only went up to 51 shoulda looked a little newer, thanks! i knew it was a factory cap.
