Check out my $20 NOS hub cap! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Joesjunk** · 09-15-2007, 06:27 PM

A friend found this at a swap meet for me, new in the box! And was marked $20.00!!!! Its a 3/4 ton cap. These suckers are HARD to find! I just need one more.

Longhorn Man · 09-15-2007, 06:36 PM

dude, you suck.

I always kinda figured you had a bunch hangin off the wall in the basement.

CG · 09-15-2007, 07:00 PM

I only need 4 more for my 71 3/4 ton 4x4

PICKMUP · 09-15-2007, 08:15 PM

Send it right out to me and you can double-your-money!

**uncle** · 09-15-2007, 08:35 PM

You putting one on each corner of a tailgate. Sorry,couldn't resist. It's got Joe written all over it.

**Classic Bowties** · 09-15-2007, 08:44 PM

Sweet score! ! ! I would be willing to give you 5x your puchase price if you want to ship that one to me or I would also be willing to trade you a set of 4 extra nice used ones for that one nos cap. I am a original cap junkie

Is it a "wall hanger" or will it find it's way on a truck,Joe?

**special-K** · 09-15-2007, 09:02 PM

N.o.s. Joe.Wallhanger Joe.Hubcap havin`Joe.Original paint Joe...

xshadow · 09-15-2007, 10:35 PM

I have this set of nos. I really don't have any money tied up in them.... The only problem is I only have one of the 4x4 and three of the others....well the other problem is I don't have a gmc or any use for them....but hey they are new old stock never on a truck.

72armyswbtruck · 09-15-2007, 11:05 PM

Man that was a nice find

**Joesjunk** · 09-15-2007, 11:54 PM

I actually have 2 NOS front 4x4 3/4ton caps and now this one rear, I need one more rear. I will probaly hang it up on the wall with the other NOS caps I have for now, but I plan on using them on my next 4x4.

**special-K** · 09-16-2007, 08:58 AM

I may have a spare.If I ever get into the stash,I`ll let you know.I have those later ones ,too,in the boxes.I bought them for my`90 Blazer/never used them.

I am working on my growing multiple sets. I am going to hang them all over the Garage, both GMC and CHEVY 1/2, 3/4 ton HUB CAPS. My prettiest one is a NOS white one. I repaint them and restore them as I get them too. I admit the Stainless ones are my favorite.

LOL....And I thought I was the only one that collected weird things!!!!

**special-K** · 09-17-2007, 07:04 AM

Exactly where in China Lake do you live?I don`t need directions.Just the address will do.

I already found Joe`s on Google Earth.It was easy,I just kept scanning and the same coordinates would show a blur of a different original paint color every time.I knew I found the right place.

**Joesjunk** · 09-17-2007, 06:31 PM

too funny!

chipflyer · 09-17-2007, 07:11 PM

Another nice find Joe. I have a neighbor who bought one of those at a dealer almost 15 years ago, made a clock out of it and has it hanging on the wall. I almost cried when I saw it

I'll PM you. I live on the Base. The town is Ridgecrest, but the base is called China Lake. Yea, I am a crazy Hubcap nut.
