My apology by adding a photo of a 1939 Pontiac Station. This is the correct illustration for the 1940 Pontiac Station Wagon.

1940 Checker

Looks similar to this 1922 Cadillac?

1937 Pontiac De Luxe Six Cabriolet

1908 Maxwell

USA Readers may not realise this, but Ford Motor Company in Australia developed and designed an All Australian Ford LTD for 1973. The 1972 Ford LTD 4-door Pillared Hardtop was the last USA big Ford sold in Australia. So, as mentioned above, for 1973 we got our own 1973 Ford LTD. For Hubcaps, Ford chose these Turbine Hubcaps, as fitted to the Ford Thunderbirds. However, Ford Australia painted over the centre with the body colour. If you look on the inside of these hubcap[s, you can still see the Thunderbird writing and bird on teh inside of the plastic centre.. Check out this Australian 1973 Ford LTD wearing these Turbine Hubcaps.

Here is a picture of teh 1972 Ford Thunderbird that appeared in teh original Sales Brochure. Notice that it has this style of Hubcap, which is genuine Ford, and not Aftermarket. As my just purchased hubcap has a slightly different plastic Centre that the ones that say Ford Thunderbird, I thought that my Centre might be for a specific year?

I am surprised that no one has been able to tell me the correct year these Ford Thunderbird Hubcaps?

Hi 406mac, It is presently 7PM here in Brisbane, Queensland, the first day of Autumn. I am a Hubcap Guy with a nice display of Ford Hubcaps in my Garage. Regards Mercman <><

1930-1931 Ford Model A Hubcap

This is what a fully restored 1937 Ford Deluxe Club Coupe looks like - beautiful.

The Clock was an Accessory in the 1942 Pontiacs.
