Re: Green Machine

Although I believe these hubcaps are the wrong vintage for the #GreenMachine I jumped at their availability and the chance to test drive any set on the new wheels. Not having these in hand, so not being sure if they would fit and function kept me from buying any online so my procrastination paid off!

The question I had (that I couldn't seem to find a concrete answer to after numerous searches on this site and others) was "will these 73+ caps fit over the front and rear hubs?" I believed that I needed a 4.5" center hole on the front caps to clear the hub, so this cheap set would allow me to cut/trim/grind/whatever to fit. But, at least on this truck, these later caps popped right on!

The're a bid dented and dinged and could use some touch up paint, but I think they really improve the look of the truck overall. The hunt continues for some hubcaps of the proper vintage, but I'm in no hurry now.
