AR WTB C20 hubcaps

[clemdaddy]

looking for more hubcaps like the one pictured. it is from a 3/4 ton 16" lock-ring or split rim wheel with clip style attachment. the back of the cap steps down to an inside measurement of 8 3/4". i want either chrome or painted caps. hopefully in good enough shape to chrome plate them.

appreciate any help...

Hard to find in chrome and good shape . I have beening looking too. Have you tried to install the ring in a 1/2 ton cap . That is what i did works good .

i sure would be willing to try it. so i've got some 1/2 ton caps but not the 3/4 ton clip type cap to get the inner ring.

now looking for beat up caps that have a nice inner ring. do you have any available?

thanks, clem

Found one really nice chrome one on crazed list, but they wanted 100 bucks for it. Thought for a minute it was a set at that price, but it was just one.

Try hubcap kingdom in Tulsa, that is all they do is hubcaps. I have been there and the place is huge, they buy truckloads of stuff from salvages all over the US.... Stuff that has been sitting on their shelves ( or out back in a pile ) for years. Never know you might just get lucky since that is all they do, they got to have connections also.

thanks sig, i'll keep their name in my rolodex, but i got the wheels and the one cap shown on here and want to try the to get the caps here too. but the process that yeller used sounds interesting and i will give that a try.
ps... the oil bath and cluster are great, thanks a bunch.

need a set as long as i don't screw one up. though the one original i have is nice enough.
let me know if you find some. i'm gonna check out back and see if the 47-54 caps have a similar ring?

Delete. Sorry. Clem, I was going to offer to buy your single cap but I just noticed it's a 65 cap, not a 66. I need two more 66 C20 chrome caps.

I have 4 clip style hub caps off of a 1966 C20. They have some surface rust and some rust where the inner rim attaches to the outer cap. 3 have just minor dents, 1 has more damage and needs work. Would work till you found a better one. $200 plus shipping.

Thanks'

Jim
