WIW: 67-68 GMC painted caps MINT!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**Joesjunk** · 05-29-2008, 03:50 AM

What are these worth?? They were nos caps that were on a truck for a short time. They are very nice, but do have some shelf wear and a few chips. Have been saving them, but dont think I will ever use them.

**special-K** · 05-29-2008, 04:42 AM

Are they for nubs or clips?To just the right restorer they`d be worth a good bit.

Brad · 05-29-2008, 04:48 AM

I have no idea regarding your question, but those are pretty sweet! I just posted a thread looking for something like this..I just can't use GMC on a Chevy though!

**Joesjunk** · 05-29-2008, 04:53 AM

They are for the nub type wheels

**special-K** · 05-29-2008, 05:04 AM

I want a set of bright caps just like that.I kinda hate to do it,but I wonder what chroming would cost?I`d make an offer if I knew.See what others say....$100?I`d give that for them.

**DREW67** · 05-30-2008, 04:12 AM

Joe they still look good wish I had a original truck to use them on.

**special-K** · 05-30-2008, 01:08 PM

I don`t think I`d mess those up.But,would be interested if a price can be agreed on.I`ll keep looking for the "fancy" dog dishes.
I look at a part like these as being,in some ways,more valueable than the fancier stuff.Most standard equipment was taken for granted and worked hard.There`s no aftermarket (repro),they really are a rarity.Like painted bumper guards,an upgrade that isn`t "blingy"...imagine that.On the other side,they`d only have a value to a true restorer with a truck that calls for these...not too many.It`s like all these 250/3spd combos getting yanked and tossed for 350/auto set-ups.The guy that hangs on to this stuff will have something one day.Now,actually.There have always been those who care for originality.And a penny saving 6 banger is saving dollars these days.I had a`55 wagon with a custom steering wheel and MonteCarlo console/seats.It took alot of searching and many bucks to get the shift on the column and a factory seat.That was 25 years ago.
Anyway,history lesson over.

LMK what you come up with.

**Joesjunk** · 05-31-2008, 04:07 AM

I forgot to say these are for a 1/2 ton.

**special-K** · 05-31-2008, 12:56 PM

Still interested.
Any other input on value here?C`mon guys,take a stab.

**Canadian694x4** · 05-31-2008, 03:48 PM

$150? Not often you come across those. You'd likely fetch $150-$200 for those on evil-bay I'm thinking...

Cyclone44 · 05-31-2008, 04:02 PM

I would say $100 would be a fair price....JMO

woodymm3 · 05-31-2008, 11:36 PM

i would say for a full set in mint someone would pay 300.... just because they are so rare in that condition. i would really hold out for 250 at least. they are worth every penny. seems a high price but for the rarity it is worth it.

Sammy · 06-01-2008, 03:27 AM

I think everyone is in the ball park as far as what they would fetch on E-bay is anyones guess depending on how much you hype you make them as being rare.
