Looks like they got everything from the '40's on UP!!! I'm speculating on most of these.....
hubcaps 1 look like ford van caps
hubcaps 2 I believe are correct dogdishes for our 'era of trucks. AND...are my personal pic for you to get if you go steelies!!

hubcaps 3 next era and later dogdish chevy truck/van caps (don't think they fit our steel wheels)
hubcaps 4 ??most likely car caps?? when and what other than chevy i don't know!

hubcaps 5 I think 60's (before our trucks)
hubcaps 6 Well, those are Rick's!! what r they from Rick?

Hope that gives u and idea. And my vote!!!

[67chevy1series]

the kind that i told john i wanted are 1970 nova poverty caps.....

[oldblue1968chevy]

are you missing a few or what? i dont think i can find a complete set of much of anything...if I sort thru em all for him i'll try'n make some sets, (hes going to get to gether the older, generally more valuable ones and junk the 80 90's hubcaps etc)

I'll tyr'n buy a set from him he said he had 4 wide steelies for $100 i just need 3 (have 2 but one is a spare)

[oldblue1968chevy]

my hei is powered by the big red wire. I was reading that it needs to go straight to the fusebox? Could I be loosing performance driveability here?

ok ill take it it should clean up nicely (i work a mean bundle of steel wool)

[Junkpyl]

The cap in picture #2 is the correct one for our trucks although the one in the picture you snapped is for a C20. I have a set of the stainless ones on my truck and they look awesome although I like the poverty caps as well.

I'm from Arizona so this whole chigger and tick thing is new to me. Boy does it suck! Beautiful state though.

[oldblue1968chevy]

Yea i got chiger bites where chiger bites souldnt be

thanks on the headsup on the caps

FUSEBOX???? Not that I know of. Mine is like yours out of the firewall and into the HEI. No fuse or to the fuse box. Hope this makes u feel better.

[tready]

Nice find.

[oldblue1968chevy]

nice find on what treddy?

cruise in today check 53 belair thread for pics

hubscrub- i gotta flier that says carshow in manchester this weekend cruise down the blvd and valcover racing i'll give details tomorow im tired

[67chevy1series]

if you would just fix your driver door so you could put more trim on...what about the cab peices?

[oldblue1968chevy]

i gotta get my door adj to put the rest of the drivers cab trim on...i played with it awhile back and got it better but not good enough?

[67chevy1series]

you should supply me with pics... and you cant pu the little 3 or 4 inch peice bhind the door on? why? if the door is to close to the fender then it should be ok to put the trim on the cab behind the door right? ...maybe i just dont know because i can see LOL

[slick copper]

Nice! I like the half moon headlight covers! Didn't know you had them.
Oh, and I think tready meant your hubcap heaven find!

[oldblue1968chevy]

The headlight covers were on it when i bought it they came off right away, then they grew on me. I wish I could get the truck back how it was when I bought it it was 1 color, straight and sorta still unmolested...oh well wrecks new motors disc brakes its all good

i'll try' get the hole diagram rick ive been busy

i guess i can put the lil trim piece on i just cant get my hand in the lil area behind the cab corner to tightne the nuts

[67chevy1series]

thats the good thing the cab doesnt use the little clips with the nuts it only uses the push in clips

[67chevy1series]

68 pages! 68 just like your truck.

[lowdown72]

[67chevy1series]
