hubcap options for a 71? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

LooseCannon · 03-27-2004, 01:22 AM

Hi all,

I purchased a 71 long-wide (actually the wife got it for me) last month. The truck is all original w/80k miles, she picked it up from a horse stable manager for $250. Anyway, the truck doesn't have any center caps/hubcaps. I browsed the Picture board for some ideas and really like the ones on the attached photo.

So my questions are:[list=1][*]Did the hubcaps in the photo come on a 71?[*]What were the hubcap options for a 71?[*]Any good resources?[/list=1]

Thanks!

LooseCannon,
Yep, that was the deluxe hubcap that year. Chevy made those up to about 76, I think the first year was 69, but not sure. I don't know where you would find them now days, you might try e-bay. I sold a set of the older style similar to that on e-bay for 67/68's awhile back. Golden state used to carry them, heck you might try the Chevy dealer, that's probably where they were getting them?
