Re: 68 Hub caps ?
The one appears to have a yellow bowtie, which means it's from '73 and up. I think the blue bowtie's were on '69 to '72. I don't think they were an option in '68, but I could be wrong.

Re: 68 Hub caps ?
Those aren't hubcaps,they're wheel covers. Hubcaps cover the hub and wheel covers cover the wheel. Blue bowties are 69-72 and yellow are 73-75. 67/68s are the same wheel cover minus the bolt-on center and re painted i the indented center. I prefer the 69-75 style and will run a set on my '67
