Default Strange Ford Hubcap

Hello.
Does anybody know what kind of hubcap this is?
I've searched whole google, but couldn't find any pic.
Maybe a truck, or some foreign Ford? I assume that the steel in the back is not original. The holes for the screws look like they are.

Oh, shortly after the post I found out what it is. Can't delete it.
Sorry to bother u. Not exactly a Supercar. Lol

But still a nice looking old Truck For N and D Series. Englisch Truck, that was also sold in Germany.

Either that truck driver is very over weight or he's taking that turn a little too fast...........lol

Looks like both overweight and too fast. There is probably a second picture showing it on it's side.

Interesting hubcap, never seen one bolted on. It looks like that chunk of channel iron is not from it and i'd assume it used countersunk headed bolts.

That hubcap is quite unique. Haven't seen one before.

This thing is carrying 354 bags of rice each weighing more than 100lbs, looks like 50 bags of potatoes weighing 150lbs each and taking a corner at, oh, probably 35 mph. And it’s doing that with minimal body roll from 55yr old bushings, balljoints, and shocks that are devoid of any oleo dampening agent contained within. If that doesn’t scream “Supercar”.....I don’t know what does!!!

Cheers
Dave
