looking for some for a 73 full size olds
thanks

 

Boy are you deep in the ...luck...NOS in the box with wheel locks, instructions et al.

 

I found these N.O.S. wheel covers on e-Bay last year. I purchased them for my '67 because I increased my wheel size from 14" to 15".

Here is one wheel cover that is a little worse for wear, currently listed on e-Bay... http://www.ebay.ca/itm/15-1973-74-75...43e75c&vxp=mtr (there are more listed)

This is my car...

Those are beautiful! Maybe the best looking wire covers ever made IMO. Believe it or not, back in 1990, I had an '84 Delta 88. Then, there were still quite a few old cars in junk yards here on LI. I found an exact set of those covers and bought them. I repainted the Delta complete, my first complete paint job, and put those caps on.....she sure was pretty!

 

jaybird those look sharp on your car!
thanks for the ebay link , but i am looking for some that are nicer than that one is.



brett thanks for the reply. what year car are your nos hub caps for? the picture you posted looks like a newer than a 1973

 

Those were found on the majority of the 1980-1984 FS cars ...

Exception(s) being the 83-84 Regency Brougham (poss some 82's) & the 84 Royal Brougham LS.

These replaced a similar looking 78-79 FS wheel cover w/a skinny "Rocket" that lacked the locking feature available on the later ones.

 

... What he said.
Thanks Mr PackRat

 

Not so. I had an 83 Regency Brougham with wire wheel discs that also had the locking feature. MOST 83/84 Regency and Regency Broughams had those wire wheel discs. Only a few of them had the wheel covers.

 

those are WAY to elegant for the 73. LOL
still looking for nice 1973 spoke hubcaps
Thank You

 

Not sure I know what you are getting at ...

What's not so ?.

EDIT -

Guess I share some blame here.

I wasn't trying to say the 98RB's & the D88 RBLS's didn't come with wire wheel covers.

In fact AFAIK ... they pretty much all had them.

My point was that those cars generally didn't use the 1980-1984 style wire wheel cover w/the larger center that Paladin31 posted.

They used the type like in the pic of the 98 you posted w/the smaller center.

Either type was of the locking nature.

It was the 78/9 ones with the thin Rocket's that did not lock.
(which look similar to the larger center 1980-1984 covers)

 

Got your heart set on wires, or just a nice set of 15" covers would be ok? What is the range of acceptable options Mon Ami? Mr Le Pew

Oops, help if I give you the pics to choose from.

 

have not ruled out disco yet


sorry none for me

 

Cool, "....one of these days I'm going to be able to sell you a House to go along with that doorknob"

 

or maybe a horseless carriage to go with those hub caps
