Custom wheel disc for a '63 or '64 full-size Pontiac.

If you're talking about the bottom middle picture, the spokes on the spinner go straight out. The ones in Kermie's pic are curved. Very similar, though.

I checked that, and not even close. :bilmem:

I'm wondering if they aren't early aftermarket caps? :confused5:

[mrvette]

Mid year Vette??? I thinking 63-4...... maybe '83 vette???:dance:

Could be, with an aftermarket spinner added on. they're for 14in wheels so I told the guy I didn't want them. My old cars are all 15s.
thanks anyway. :thumbs:

YOU KNOW you are OLD when you remember 14" wheels on a decent size car....something like an old A or B body size/weight.....

Anyone remember the Kelsey-Hayes brake drums/rims??

:dance::lol:

Was it one piece or two? The spinner part looks like the '65 Vette, but the rest looks more like a Ford hub cap.

That looks like a center cap for rally rims :yesnod:

Looks like the '64 Pontiac spinner off the full wheel cover, the cover it's mounted to seems to be after market or from another auto. Can not find the wheel cover.

How about the optional 1963 Pontiac Parisienne hubcap? It was actually a Catalina cap with spinners.

(Canukistani Pontiacs were on a Chevy Chassis, including the top line models. So no Bonneville caps or 8-lug aluminum wheels were available on them).

Looks like mystery solved to me......but on that spinner angle/topic....

anyone remember Nader and his bitching bout knock off wheels as being dangerous??

to a pedestrian, who maybe get his legs hurt by the knock off???

so they were outlawed!!!!.....

Nader was a total idiot.....one of the first most public examples of the stupidity taking over public edjemakashun in this country.....
