Default Re: Hub cap help

Boy do those look like the '65-'66 Chevy mag styles (N96 I believe). They look like the 14s. They are almost identical except for the marking in the center of the fake hub and the slot/hole (these are smaller) in between the "spokes". It wouldn't surprise me if they were from the same supplier for Chevrolet. The 10 screws on the backside will allow you to remove the center portion of the cover making them easier to clean. Make note of the orientation of the valve stem location in relation to the logo in the center of the cap. That way you can put them back the way they were. You can compare the set you have to see if the location is in the same place for all of them. I've noticed that all of the Chevy ones I've seen that haven't been taken apart have the stem in the same location in relation to the bowtie. Those have to be somewhat rare. I'm always looking for may style wheel covers and have never seen a set like that.
