WTB: Good Patina-ed Nickel-plated Original Wire Wheel Hub Caps

Post by Mikey1968 » Fri Apr 19, 2019 8:29 am

Hello all,
Looking for four patina-ed nickel-plated original wire wheel hub caps.

I'll buy one or all four in multiple or a single sales until I get a full set. I may even buy a spare in case I lose one. I've located one so far and have four more to go.

Thanks,
Mike

If you do not find what you want, if you purchase a new set of nickle plated hubcaps and rub your hands all over them and install them...in about 18 months or less, they'll probably look exactly like what you want. I did that on an aged 1919 and they look great now.

I may need to do that. The repros are soooo much thinner than the one original I have.
