wayfarerstranger Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 What Year Are These 1941 42 ?? And Does Anybody Have A Set ?? Thanx Chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobT-47P15 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 1942, Chance. They have the script style lettering. And, contrary to what some believe, that red ring was not red when the caps were new. It was painted by some owner. Doesn't make the caps all bad, though.

A member of our POC region has a 42. When I bought my 41 coupe (uses the same caps), we were discussing how bad some of my hubcaps were. When he restored his car 20+ years ago, he found NOS hubcaps. He told me some of the new ones had the ring painted, and some did not. I emailed this guy about these hubcaps, they are 9". I need the 10" for my Special Deluxe.

Young Ed Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Dang I'm looking for some 9" caps too. But I need the previous design with just the ship in a circle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furylee2 Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Ed, like this one? It’s on eBay item number 330271723968. I think it’s an aftermarket, because it doesn’t appear to have all the detail as most I’ve seen. But they tend to show up quite often. I recently saw a pair on the Bay.

Young Ed Posted September 17, 2008 Report Share Posted September 17, 2008 Looks pretty close to the 39-40 ones we have. I'll have to check and see which size ones Dad already has. His truck should have 9s but I think we may already have most of a set of the bigger ones for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Elder Posted September 18, 2008 Report Share Posted September 18, 2008 Ed, I like it when you talk about your projects with your pops, some time you should share some of your dad's pearls of wisdom with us! I'll bet they would be good. FRANKIE47 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
