Repo Hubcaps??

Has anyone heard of any plans to reproduce the 67-72 hubcaps? Mainly the 69-72 10 1/2 inch chrome ones. I would think there would be enough need for them but maybe I am wrong. Also the full wheel cover centers are a need as well. Very hard to restore them and get them right. Thoughts?

Re: Repo Hubcaps??

I don't think the demand vs the cost would justify a vendor making an investment in repops. The best way is to look for set of NOS and a set of good used. The used caps for driving and put on the NOS for shows. Just a thought.

I don't understand why someone doesn't stamp some out. They are in high demand and someone makes the wheels that need the hubcaps. I think they would sell as many OEM style hubcaps as most of those center caps (inner nub) Wheel Vintiques offers for their smoothies and rallyes.
