Looks good, not something I would run but looks nice. I think it would be cool if a company would make some stock looking steel wheels and hub caps but in a larger diameter and of coarse wider. A 20 or 22 by 10 would be sweet!!

Colorado Customs makes these up to 22X10.. I think they would look cool powdercoated like the oldies http://www.coloradocustom.com/WheelD...D=101&DivCat=5

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
IMO, it is nice to see a stock C-10 for once..............Because honestly, you don't see many restored stock C-10's.

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
Love it. The only thing I would do is lower it.... and drive the crap out of it. I am going through major pains to get a 3 speed column shift going in my truck. Definitely would have been less hassle to keep the auto, but...

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
I like the stock look. I'm going back with the stock look on my '71 stepside along with the 250 and 3 on the tree. Where are you located in VA?

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
Drop and drive! Those are actually orange on the '67 caps. '68 were very similar except red and silver and the bow tie indentation is slightly different.

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
19673ontree, nice truck. Could you do me a big favor and post the paint code number from the sticker in glove box, if it is there . I believe it is the GM503 Light Green, but no one on the board has any info thus far.
Thank you. |

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
I like dog dish caps. My preference would be to paint the wheels body color, but they look good black as well.

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
Stock trucks rule!!! Thank God you do not want to butcher it like most of the
other morons would. You have a great base to work with. Keep the stock looks, clean up what is there, stay with the six banger,(OK, maybe breathe on it a little), drive it and enjoy it!!

Re: got my new (OLD) hubcaps anyone else like the stock look ?
to answer a couple questions ,
#1 I live in southwest virginia a town named Grundy #2 the glove box sticker is not readable sorry and I was wondering about the color on the hubcaps it's faded I thought it was red ?? but one of you said it was chevy orange !! thats what I'll put back on them , and the wheel's did they come from the factory black or body color ?? I am going to paint them green when I paint the truck ,, I have been working on 67 68 69 camaro's for years but am really enjoying this truck , I am going to fully restore it back to 100% stock inside and out as close as part's that exist will allow , I already see that they don't make a 1967 seat cover so will have to go with a different model seat cover , just thing's like that , even though this truck has a little rust places here and there it's still the best one I've ever had , once done it should be a blast !! it's a good truck to drive right now it runs out great !! great site you have here lot's of info ,,,,,,,,,,,,Brad |
