Pretty decent set. Have some paint fade and a few small dings/scratches. These were later caps that i had the blue vinyl cut for. $115 shipped in the lower 48, a little more elsewhere. Money order preferred, but have paypal.

What year are these "correct" for? Thanks

They are for 69-72 with the blue bowtie. 73 to 77 or so had the yellow bowtie. Technically the 69-72 caps were also chrome with would split on the edges. In 73 they changed to stainless steel which these are.

Would these be right for the 16" wheel (6 bolt) ?

I remember being told blue were 3/4 ton and the yellow were 1/2 ton, but that is incorrect?

That is incorrect. All 69-72 caps had the blue, and 73 and newer went to yellow regardless of 1/2 or 3/4 or 1 ton. 1/2 ton caps are approx 10 1/2" across and 3/4 would be about 12" across.

Good to know! Thank you!

So, these 10-1/2 inchers in the below picture are for 73 and up? Sorry for all the questions!

Yes, those are 73 and newer that you pictured.

OK, That clears it up. The P.O. stated the yellow were correct for 72 but he was not right. Now I need 2 blue ones! (4x4)

Got the caps today. Look good.
Thanks,
