Re: Holding Hubcaps

My bad there, I didn't even count the lugs. Yup that is a big problem. When you get old your eyes don't always tell you the whole story.

What about taking a painted 8 lug hubcap and trimming the center out and using it as an adapter for the smaller cap? Paint it to match the wheel and it shouldn't show that much.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
