1963 C-10 Hubcaps

[WTexChevy]

Anybody have any pictures of the correct caps for that year? A source that sells them or repos would be great too!

These are k-rect for '63. No one makes reproductions that I am aware of. You just have to scrounge junkyards, swap meets, craigslist, e-bay, etc.

cool! Thanks! Were the wheels paint matched to body color in 63?

[Revoh]

Mine are still original, so I'd have to say yes. Although it seems like maybe there were some black wheels out there--white trucks maybe?? I'm not sure. Of course, the hubcaps also came painted white instead of chrome.

Theres an old junk yard in northern virginia that had them. Probably still do.They had literally stacks of hubcaps and wheel covers and you could not even get to all of them to see what they were. this did not include the buses filled with them and the rows they kept inside. Maybe someone here can remember the place. I was only there once.

Hey Revoh, whats that factory paint color called? Is that still stock suspension on there? or dropped a tad?

Here are the same hub caps painted. These caps are NOS.

What's left of the paint is called Crystal Turquoise Metallic.

It actually has the 2" drop kit from CPP. I bought it from this board. Springs, shocks, control arm, rear perches. I also changed the front ball joints while I was at it. Handles pretty well. Stays in the road much better. Rides much harsher than I anticipated. I kind of wish it was lower in the front or higher in the back. For the most part, I think it helped the overall look, though.

Thanks for the info. I think its sitting just right, i'm not big on these trucks with a hot rod stance.
