Guest Commodore Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Here is a photo of a 1949 - 1950 Ford Hubcap. I don't know whether Ford offered a full wheel cover in these years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) I think the original poster is trying to find out what these are.....they look like a combination of caps to me. Edited August 22, 2013 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curti Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 It looks like something JC Whitney sold as a bolt on enhancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curti Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 As I look closer, The cap looks to be three pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

john2dameron Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Chevy or Corvette used a wheel cover slotted around the outer edge like that. The hubcap portion resembles the hubcaps that came on my '69 Ford F-100 pickup when it was new. The bars don't look like any I ever saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28 Chrysler Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I thought that they were Chevy hubcaps topped with a Plymouth cap with a claw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Mellor NJ Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Sounds like Turducken plates. Did John Madden ever own a 50 Ford? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketraider Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Outer edge looks like a Ford factory accessory trim ring, maybe 52-53? Small hubcap like a 63-4 Chev or 68-70 Buick dogbowl. The three-bar spinner? No idea.Either assembled or as said earlier, an aftermarket "custom" job. Though it looks like stainless and the aftermarkets were usually flash-plated chrome that rusted or flaked off after a few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
