Take-Off 69-72 Stainless Dog Dish Caps 1/2 ton - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**leddzepp** · 12-30-2011, 03:13 AM

These were removed from a 1/2 ton '72 truck by the original owner in 1975, and have been sitting in storage since. The black paint is shiny and near perfect, as well as the blue bowties. There are no dents or curb rash. There is no rust. No abrasives have ever been used to clean them, as there are almost no fine scratches and the finish is mirror, like chrome. They are not perfect, but the only thing nicer I have seen are NOS out of a box. WIW?

I'd guess around 250-300 given the current market. Very nice! I can't afford these or NOS so I've been looking for NOS or perfect newer yellow bowtie ones to paint...

I'd say $200...that's $50 each. Maybe would get more on Ebay,depending on who's bidding. That hubcap site,when they have them,lists them for $60 each and they are the highest priced place out there I've seen.

A set of 4x4 ones just sold on e-bay at $300. I would guess these around the $250 range. And as with the chrome caps, make sure they aren't cracked on the edges. That is very common.
