It is not a matter of cost. Having the stock wheels refinished along with the cost of hubcaps or wheelcovers in great condition is actually more expensive then even new alloy wheels! Am I crazy or what?
So, with that in mind....I have a great deal for some lucky guy.... or gal!
About a year ago I was the winner of an eBay auction for 4 NOS (New Old Stock) FORD Hubcaps to fit 13" wheels. That was the good news. The bad news was that I own a pickup with 14" wheels!
I do not have a use for them and it is time to make room on my shelves. I do not intend to make any money on these hubcaps. I would simply like to get back some of what I paid for them.
These hubcaps will fit 13" wheels that were used on Ford vehicles, Falcons, Fairlanes, Econolines etcetera in the 1960's.
HONESTY IS THE BEST POLICY
The eBay seller stated these hubcaps were NOS. They were not. Pretty close in quality to NOS but not perfect.
These hubcaps were obviously installed at one time probably for a very short period of time. It is possible that they were used on a display truck in a showroom. But I doubt that they have seen any road usage at all. They are too clean. They were probably removed and put on a shelf and forgotten about for a long time.
As I previously stated, they are not perfect. There is some very light scuffing and a small amount of very light scratches and a couple very small dents that can easily be pushed out. I would recommend that they be repaired by someone who can do "paintless body repair," Dent Doctor for instance.
I paid $175 for the hubcaps and I would like to get $150 for them. PayPal is OK. For that price you will get USPS Priority Mail shipping with delivery confirmation. If you don't like them, send them back for a refund minus the shipping costs. How's that for a deal?
By the way, if you know of anyone who has 4 hubcaps of the same style in great conditon that will fit 14' wheels let me know. I have a few dozen in my possession but none look as good as these.
