KatPM Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Do you call these center caps or how would you describe this? Think it goes in the middle of the wheel of old cars?

TerryB Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Hub cap or grease cap for these. Both names are often used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexRiv_63 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Threaded or screw-on hubcaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Lower right item looks like a horn button. The rest are wood spoke wheel hubcaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a sell Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Keiser31 is right about the lower right being a horn button. The little Chev caps can be used on either wood or disc wheel hubs and came in at least two diameters. The nickle plated brass ones with the name were used on cars and the steel ones without the name were used on trucks. The mid 20s Chevy caps are worth $5 to $10 each. The Whippet looks in fairly nice shape so if you can find the right buyer could get a fair amount more. The DB cap was for Dodge Brothers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is, looks like 1953-1954 Chevy 210 and 150 models Edited February 21, 2019 by John348 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
