Hubcap ID help
 

I picked this cap out of the pile at the local junkyard but am curious what it went on. The second pic shows it besides a mid 60’s super sport cap, which it resembles but I can’t find it online. Maybe an Impala hubcap but I don’t recall seeing one. It has a heavy steel base like the SS cap and is 14 inch.

Never seen one before.
Many similar here but with the windows divided.

Thanks. Looks like those listings are saying 68-69 Camaro but I don't recall ever seeing one.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

There are some pretty cool 14 inch hubcaps out there, would be nice to fit them to my 15 inch wheels.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

Never saw those on a car, ever, seeing as how they have six lug holes. YMMV. The early ('64 or so) SS wheel covers had 3 "spokes" and a center cap with the "SS" symbol on them, and a sort of dished middle. All 14", on my '64 Impala and '64 Malibu.

Your second pic is a later "mag wheel look-alike" used on Camaros, Novas and Chevelles. Possibly on the big Chevies, since they didn't get 15" wheels until '68 (I think). I used to have this info down cold, but have forgotten a lot of it, along with my 40+ year old college education. Good thing I'm retired.

Optional wheel covering for the Yenko C10. :haha:

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

That explains why I've never seen that wheel cover before with the Yenko C10 trucks having such low production numbers. Have heard of them but never seen one in real life. :lol:

Here is an ebay listing with the original instructions and part number pictured.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

Those look great. Saving a picture here in the thread for future reference.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

Thanks for finding this posting. The instructions say they are for Chevelles and Camaros. but have never seen them on a car.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

I find it odd they are 6 lug design but are meant for 5 lug cars. You would think Chevy would have made them a 5 lug design, but I guess back then people didn't care.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

That's what threw me off. I've never even seen those wheel covers before.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

Yeah those are RPO PA2 wheels covers, offered as an option on 68/69 Camaro's, maybe Chevelle and Nova as well. I've seen a few Camaro's with them, but they are pretty rare.

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

you were close, 15's came on 67 Z/28's. 15x6 in 67/68 on Z/28 and then 15x7 in 69 on Z/28. All non Z/28 wheels for the first gen Camaro were 14"

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

Sounds like the mystery is solved. Thanks for everyone's input!

Re: Hubcap ID help
 

I would think because it has 6 spokes they put 6 lugs on it .
