Thanks, I bought those off eBay a few years ago.
They're old school kind of a modified turbine style.
They were kinda rough when I got them and I didn't like the way the fins looked at the center section since the lug holes intersected the fins in an odd way.(1st picture)
Since it was only about 1/16" high , I cut the center section down flush in the lug area re-machined the fins.(2nd picture)
I sandblasted them and had them powdercoated in Hyper Silver color.(3rd picture)
There were no center caps so I machined them from 4" diameter aluminum bar stock, engraved the bowtie and "CHEVROLET" lettering and polished them.(4th picture)
