67-68 4X4s never came with hubcaps from the factory. If the 69-72 painted 4x4 caps exist they must be pretty rare..I've never seen any.

Here are the painted caps I need, pics courtesy of Teeitup. Its what my truck had according to SSTim and the 1972 catalog.

Also pic of the open center 3/4's I need courtesy of w314speed.

I'll take a set of 4 67-68 GMC 2wd caps assuming they'd fit. I can mill the center portion out after hours at work. Just picked up my own Palmgren rotary table today that would make easy work of opening up the centers!

Vintage Windmills · 12-15-2011, 09:49 PM

Seriously? None left, the supply was used up with the couple recent transactions?

BLAZERMAN · 12-16-2011, 12:55 AM

I have a pair of 1/2 ton 4x4 open center caps..not sure of condition I'll have to dig them out. Also have about 8 3/4 ton bright caps if you have a way of opening up the centers for a 4x4?

**too much stuff** · 12-16-2011, 01:18 AM

Just saw an nos 3/4 ton cap end on ebay for around $170...
I think pickmup has a press to punch out the centers on full caps.
And i agree with rob on the painted 4x4 caps. I haven't seen any originals in 1/2 or 3/4 ton...

BrianS · 12-16-2011, 01:49 AM

I bought the set w314speed had, but he has a nos set of fronts.

there are some on ebay 1/2 and 3/4 ton you would have to open the centers tho. here is the 3/4 ton....http://www.ebay.com/itm/1973-chevy-t...item1e695630d5

Vintage Windmills · 12-16-2011, 10:10 AM

So you guys are saying even the base model 4x4 3/4's in 72 had the bright caps?

I have axcess to a milling machine with rotary table, that should work as good as a press die right?

Thanks for the ebay link!

**special-K** · 12-16-2011, 12:22 PM

Base models didn't have hubcaps,I believe. Just hubcaps were an upgrade on K/20s. I think maybe 69-72 K/10s had painted hubcaps. No 67/68 K-models got caps. Frank punches the 3/4t caps out but he doesn't want to risk damaging yours. Your best best is contacting him and buying ones he has done.

Blazerman, Would you consider parting with one of the bright 3/4 ton caps? If so please shoot me pic's and price shipped to 72764. Thanks.

Jud I called Larry "PICKMUP" today and yes he will do them, and he guarantees if he splits one he will replace it, so give him a call and he will fix you up. Coop
