Pete Phillips Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Looks like 1954-1955 hub caps 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 And for the record, he is asking $200 for the set of four. These are 10-inch diameter "dog dish" hubcaps. There probably won't be much demand, unless someone likes the low-option base models. Would modified-car owners be more likely to want them? I think the price for these would be fairly modest.

I figured they were not full wheel coverings but they do appear to be NOS. It’s been many years, but I remember some caps were remade, available as new stampings. These appear very nice. I would think they would be worth $25 per cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Perhaps IF they are new. I could not open the Facebook add. I have tried to sell mine at a couple meets for $15 with no takers. He has a much larger market place. Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted October 9, 2023 Share Posted October 9, 2023 The Facebook ad shows either some NOS or newer reproduction hubcaps that are still in the original wrapping paper. If these caps are as good as they look and could be positively identified and their application noted, the set should be easily worth $100 or more to the right person. Buick Specials get restored and are proudly displayed on the showfield too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B Jake Moran Posted October 9, 2023 Author Share Posted October 9, 2023 The older I get the more I like the base hubcaps of vehicles I am considering. This cap has a beautiful but simple BUICK on it. I just don't know what it would be correct on. Then I could go buy that car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
