Harold Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 #3 looks like 1967 Plymouth police/taxi. It should be the same as the 1951-2 Plymouth cap but without the Mayflower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keiser31 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) First one is from a Japanese car, I believe. I have seen that one, but I just cannot place it.....swan or Viking ship logo.

Harold Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) Definitely not 1967 Plymouth.I clearly remember seeing these caps on mid-sixties Plymouth police cars in NYC. I've always been interested in '51-2 Plymouths and was amazed to see these hubcaps at the time because they were nearly identical to the earlier ones. It may have been a police-only option like the later vented dog dish caps used on 1970's-80's Mopar police cars.

See this link: http://policecarwebsite.net/fc/ny/nypd/nypd1844.jpgYour link does not work for me, but I did go into my library and saw a '67 Plymouth police car with what looks to be moon style caps. I cannot see them close enough to tell if they are the same. I will certainly learn from this if they are indeed on '67 Plymouth police cars. Thanks.

Guest prs519 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Maybe the police department traded in 52 Plymouths, but kept the hubcaps for their new cruisers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest prs519 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Isn't the third one about a 52 Ford? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Isn't the third one about a 52 Ford?I think Harold may be on to something here....this one is a 1968 Plymouth "C" body cop car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhb1999 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 First one is from a Japanese car, I believe. I have seen that one, but I just cannot place it.....swan or Viking ship logo. I think Toyota Celica or Supra. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
