    I picked up four of these old aftermarket replacement hub caps and trying to figure out what they are a copy of,looks like a early 40 Chevy to me and plan on putting them on my 37 Chevy pickup after they get some good chrome on them. IMG_20260314_175228089_MP.jpg

    Going to call the Wheel smith and see if they can modify them to fit the rims I bought from them as I am going to use them.

    The aftermarket caps, that tried to avoid paying fees, w/some imprinting/logos, are some of the more interesting & imaginative ones. Good humor, wish there were more. :) .

    There were some "Bool" or ''Fool'' caps made for Fords.
