1968 P01 wheel covers
Does anyone have a picture of these wheelcovers? I have some that came with my 1968 Biscayne, but I am not sure if they are correct or not.
Thanks, Mark

Re: 1968 P01 wheel covers
PO1 was an optional cover for Impala, Belair and Biscayne. It's a full cover with about 35 - 38 holes around the edge. Hard to count in the parts book.

Re: 1968 P01 wheel covers
I bought four of these 14" wheel covers in their original Acc. boxes at Iola last month.
The (1) is individual #,the (4) is Accessory #. I traded them for an eliptical antenna later on. These were also available as an option for the 1969 Nova & Sport Vans. I wish I took a picture of them for you then,but this is all I have now.

Re: 1968 P01 wheel covers
Yes. those are the covers that I got with the car.
Thanks for the help. They are in mint shape too,(maybe the original owner thought they were too pedestrian to use also).. although they were original equipment I'm still on the fence about using them on the car. I think a 68 427 Biscayne looks better with cop caps (dog dish),and 15" steel wheels with some beefy rubber, but orignally my car had 14x6 wheels, whitewall 8.25 x 14"(sheesh!)tires and these P01's. Definately sleeperish but not very tough looking, and easily broiled into smokey piles of ash. Any opinions? Mark

Re: 1968 P01 wheel covers
Full sized hubcaps are even more sleeper than the doggie dishes.
And whitewalls too? That would be awesome, to put the hurt on someone with that combo.

[/ QUOTE ] I don't know about the 69 Nova ones but the 68 full size are like Ricks picture with chevrolet written on the white ring not like the nova one pictured. Like this one. That is not a common hub cap on a 68 biscayne but could be ordered.You will kick yourself leaving the 14 inch drums on the 68 bbc once you start driving it and it will not be long you will be looking for the original discs and 15".
