    The only thing I can suggest is to flush out the bottom of the skirt with the lines of the fender.

    This is a good idea!!!



    Not to be that guy because I love your car ALEX but those roulette type wheel covers have never done anything for me on any car. You car is probably the best example I have seen with them but I don't think they are worthy of your car.

    HOLY SHIT, I"VE GOT IT!!!! 1953 CADILLAC CAPS!!!!!!!!

    As a Kaiser guy I say the 51-54 Henry J Deluxe hub caps with the K for Kustom! The picture is a crappy one off evil bay but when they are staright they look real nice. And a bullet would cover the K if desired.

    Alex, if you decide you like the 57 Lincoln Premier covers you need to be careful and find a wheel they will clear in the center. I found that the cover will collide with the center of the regular Ford rims I have on my 51 Ford. Talk to 50fraud- he had some wheels made with a little change in the offset to accommodate his covers.

    Jeffrey James, thanks for posting the photoshop. That is just what I had in my mind's eye.

    Those are a trip. They're sort of a mind fuck, I kept thinking I was going to see a black mark because you think the wheel is locked up.

    Yep, thts the money shot! I dig it.

     
  29. Alex amigo, I love the 53 Pontiac full disc cover, nice deep dish edge triple ring outer and smooth cone center. These may be difficult to obtain. I have only seen them on a Pontiac at a show. They made two styles of this cap and some had a painted center with Pontiac letters around it. If any interest google 53 Pontiac Chieftan, on the first page is a green tu-tone four door with the no logo caps. You will see the painted logo caps on the same page. This is a no copy very unusual way cool cap, finding them may be a tough issue however. Love the Lincoln caps, love the Caddys, whatever you do will be ultra cool as usual. Good luck pal. ~sololobo~
