Wheel covers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Anybody know where I could get a good, clean set of factory '72 wheel covers? I want the ones that came on the Custom 10 trucks, the plain white with black around center a blue bowtie. My trucks covers are not factory but I am willing to trade them. See pic and thanks!

Oh, BTW, I need 5 of them due to my spare on the drivers side.

Thanks!

If those existing hubcaps have blue bowtie centers, they are indeed OE 69-72 full wheel covers. If they have yellow bowties, they are 73+ but other than bowtie color are correct.

Your truck probably did not come with them originally, it probably had the dog dish style you're looking for.

Good luck, they can be had, check e-bay too.

Jeff,

I think you are right, and they are blue.

I like the looks of what I have, but think I will retain the stock look as much as possible...even though the drive train will be a la me.

Thanks!
