    Check out the wheel covers on this '52 - are they Ford? I can't read the script but I like 'em:

    Those are stock 52






    Those are stock 52 Ford caps. And according to the 53 Ford aecessary book they are delux caps for 53. I ran those on my 53 when I had it restored. I have one Life magizine ad that shows them on a 53 Vicky.

    Yep, stock '52. One-piece and very cl***y in my humble opinion. But in the upper photo the lettering is DORF...an obvious cheap fake from J.C. Whitney or the like. Probably made in China by elves...

    Well I'd consider a set (15") if anyone has some reasonably priced. Not your DORFs though Eric.

    I'd pay a finder's fee of a new drink recently invented by our hero Navy Seals called a Bin Laden - 2 shots & a splash of water.....

    Da-dum!:D
