I'm looking for a nice set of hub caps for my '67. Anyone have a set they'd like to part with??

GMC AMI · 08-17-2005, 10:52 AM

I have a couple of sets of 4, not original 67's but in real nice shape. I would take 30 shipped for either set if you like .

If not I have a set that will. pm me

Alan Potter · 08-17-2005, 02:49 PM

Thanks Mike, but I would like to wait to see if anyone else replies that might have an original set. If noone gets back to me I might be interested in the set that is shown on the truck, but if someone else wants them, go ahead and sell to them.

stllookn · 08-17-2005, 03:09 PM

Alan, Is your truck a 1/2 or 3/4 ton? Do your wheels have the clips to hold the hubcaps? The original CST hubcaps were polished stainless with black borders and an orange bowtie. In '68 they changed to the red bowtie and a slightly different relief pattern around the bowtie. PICKMUP has a nice set of 3 '67 original caps. I am still looking for very nice original '68 caps.

Alan Potter · 08-17-2005, 07:42 PM

stllookn, My truck is a 1/2 ton. No clips on my wheels, just the little nubs stamped into the wheels to hold the hub caps on. Thanks for the information regarding PICKMUP. I'll check with him. Thanks again!!

Do you want the 'Dog Dish' style or the full wheel covers?

Alan Potter · 08-18-2005, 06:38 AM

dog dish style, scoti

**special-K** · 08-18-2005, 08:15 AM

Just a "heads-up",you don`t have the`67 wheels on your truck.You have 69-ups and can use all kinds of caps.If you want to stay original,you need wheels with clips as well.

Alan Potter · 08-18-2005, 09:04 AM

well that could be, but it's rather unlikely since we've owned this particular truck since 1968 and it has the same wheels on it now that it had then. Not to mention the fact that the wheels are date stamped 11/66.

I kept trying names on yahoo, eBay, etc & everything was taken, except for when I tried peepeeman. What's funny is it was already taken on yahoo, I'm peepeeman00 there! Brian

Please take no offense as I really liked your hubcaps.

The cute name was a close second.

64fleetside · 08-18-2005, 05:53 PM

No offense taken, just thought I'd explain since it could be kinda wierd I guess. These hubcaps need a home. Here is the original peepeeman, now 5 & starting school tomorrow......http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/peepee...2b.jpg&.src=ph Brian

I`ve seen wierder things.But the only Chevy truck dog dish hubcaps that will fit those wheels stamped 11/66 are ones that were made for 1969 or newer trucks.Just trying to help.

Alan Potter · 08-19-2005, 08:39 PM

Ok special-K, so now I'm really confused. Are you saying that the ones that I need are the ones that 64fleetside has for sale??

**special-K** · 08-20-2005, 11:07 AM

Yes,those are the earliest truck caps for nub-type wheels.The Chevy car dog dishes will work back to`55.Some of those are reproduced.

**PICKMUP** · 08-24-2005, 01:24 AM

This is one of a set of four real nice caps I had powder coated silver. You can run them as is or paint in the red bowtie and black stripe. They are real 67-8 hubcaps!!!

stllookn · 08-24-2005, 01:54 AM

Dang, Frank! Did you go and powder coat my hubcaps? Those are ORIGINALS and they do require wheels with the clips to hold them in place.

Alan Potter · 08-24-2005, 06:05 AM

Thanks for posting the pics Frank. I guess I won't be able to use them since they require the clips on the wheels. Wish I could though.

Clips? From what I remember on my wheels they were just small 'nubs' or 'divots' that the hubcap lip 'snapped' over. The are 3 of these 'nubs' equally located around the wheel.
