Re: Got steel wheels back from powder coating and dogdish caps on

The standard steel wheels with hub cabs look great! Don't see those very often. I thought the true dog dish hub caps came on 1969 COPO Camaros? Those special assembly line run of Camaros with big block 427's under the hood...the L72 cast iron block & heads or the rare ZL1's ( only 69 made ) with aluminum block & heads. You need one of those on a trailer behind your Blazer! The dog dish hub caps on the COPO Camaros had the dish on the outside...not the inside like virtually every hub cap ever made. That's what made them unique...was the dish on the outside. I like the standard steel wheels painted white with the white top. If the Blazer had a black top, I'd paint the wheels the same body color of the blazer. Is that the factory gold color ( factory name? ) of your Blazer?
