Re: Dog dish hubcaps

For 1/2 tons you can find car hubcaps. They aren't always as expense and often much easier to find. On my '67 short bed GMC I will be running 8" steel wheels with '65-'72 Pontiac dog dishes. Seems appropriate for a GMC and there is no logo, just Pontiac Motor Division stamped in an inner ring in small size. For Chevys you have all the Chevy car caps. Car caps on trucks, or cars swapping between models is one of the earliest forms of personalization with cars and trucks. In the lead sled customs era it was the thing to do with wheelcovers. In the hot rod world it was a common thing for using dog dish
