I just noticed that you're in Fredericksburg too. Are you in the city or one of the counties?

Re: mOoN CaPs!!!!somebody has to know?

almost all of the restoration sites such as classic industries, year one, etc, carry the Original style center caps and beauty rings.

I guess i'd check brothers first, because they are a site supporter
heres a link to their wheel page Hubcaps and trim rings

The center caps you're talking about are called baby moons.

I think this is what your talking about. Here's a picture of a baby moon on a stock wheel. They came on the truck when I bought it.
