Vintage plymouth hubcaps

My wife has a 33 Plymouth PD rumble seat. It has 2 spare tires mounted 1 on each front fender, for a total of 6 hub caps. The hub caps are in need if restoration, so I took them to a re-chromer. Turns out they are aluminum, and nearly impossible to restore without loosing a lot of detail. I have searched for reproduction caps, but have come up empty. Is there anyone you know who makes these. NC Industries in Sayer Pennsylvania. They have done these in the past and might have some in stock. Post a picture of cap. I think that we may have some left..

I don't know if Chrysler ,or MotorWheel, made their own hubcaps or not. Forums New posts Recent Posts Search forums.

By Guest July 7, in Plymouth. I found this great old piece on eBay. Says it's a locking hub cap for the spare tire. Looks like the same script on my '38 caps but all '38's are either in the trunk or behind the seat so it has to be for an earlier application. Mine are 9 inches across the front.

The automotive wheel cover is fast becoming extinct in these days of handsomely cast wheels and steel-wheel powder coating. The addition of a heavy metal or plastic cover to protect and beautify a car's wheels just isn't used any more. As a result of the shift in design to decorative rims, the obsolete wheel cover has increased in collector appeal. They're affordable souvenirs for cars that might be too expensive to own, and if you are lucky, they can be found by the side of the road. The chrome decorations tend to turn up in piles at garage sales and antique stores, as well.

Vintage Hubcaps Nave plates in Britain offer more than protective value for car owners — they add to the aesthetic appeal of your wheels. Due to their initial purpose, hubcaps earned their nicknames grease cap and dust cap, and in some cases, dirt cap. In its early days, hubcaps used brass, wood, wire, and steel as the production material and a threaded-center hub as the style. It evolved into alternate patterns with more intricate details and complications with time. Manufacturers started building center-threaded trims with hubcaps shifting in purpose towards aesthetic value.
