Hub caps
I recently picked up a set of 68 hub caps two are gray while the other two appear too be a gold color they are all a lil' crumby but very workable.
so my questions are; how do I know if my truck came with this style? just outa curiousity could the gold ones be from a 50th anni truck? or just a gold color truck? my thinking is the 50th would've had full wheel covers. what were the color options on these in 67? only ones I've seen were white&red? did they ever color match the caps to the truck? here are the two ugly ones the other two look much nicer

Re: Hub caps
It is not gold, thats what happens after 40 years out in the weather=surface rust. 67 used the same style cap, colors were white-red. 68 colors were argent silver-black-red bowtie.Deluxe models used the chrome dog dish, same trim paint scheme. Full wheel covers were optional, indentical for 67-68.
