    anyone know where I can get my hands on at least 2 of the painted dog dish hubcaps for my '63

    I have 4, but 2 of them are so banged up, they won't stay on.

    i've been on ebay, but there hasn't been anything there, and I can't find them in reproduction anywhere.

    Those look very much like hubcaps from 69-72 trucks. Did someone paint over the chrome? Kilroy was here

    RB , I,ve got a few that look similiar But theres a low spot between the center & the outside . Kind of indented if that makes sens . Also I noticed theres two different sizes .

    Could You measure yours. It,s not looking like I have the exact same ones . But the shiny white paint may be throwing me off to , :D . Thanks Bob

    there is a low spot. its almost as if if the center of the hubcap was pushed in.

    across the center (where the bowtie is) is 6"
    diameter across the entire hubcap is 10 1/4"
