I have 3 of these hubcaps and I can't seem to ID them

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Keith.

'67-'72 Pick-up ? Looks like from a 3/4 or 1-ton ?

I think that all 1967-1972 dog dish type Chevy truck hubcaps had a painted ring on them. Most (if not all) of the earlier 1960's hubcaps had a "geared" appearance embossed into them, and were not this smooth or simple. 1950's hubcaps generally had several bowties set in a circle. Also I'm not aware of a gold bowtie used before the mid-1970's.

I believe this may be off of a light commercial van or some other utility model, possibly in the 1980's. It could be that they're from an early Astro van.

Dave,

Yeah, come to think of it, you're right about some of the '67-'72 having that "gear" motif - black on a white background...

The yellow bow-tie with the black outline has me a little baffled - the first thing I thought of was early '70s Chevy LUV...

I don't know what wheel it fits. The OD is 9 1/2" and the ID is 9 1/4 "
