    I picked up this Ford V8 hubcap at an antique swap meet yesterday. It looks like a '35, but a quick search online shows that the '35 hubcaps are reproduced. Any ideas on if it's an original or not? It doesn't really matter - I paid 10 bucks for it just because I thought it would be some cool garage art next to my '35 Ford bus grille. Thanks!

    Yeah, I think it's original. I didn't notice how rough it was on the business end...Plus, it's pretty heavy for how small it is, so it's probably not a repro. Still, it's good enough for the garage wall.
