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:

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.

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.

We have a winner I think......

Pontiac forum says....

63 Catalina caps with Bonneville spinners :thumbs:

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).

Not being a Pontiac man I forgot about the Canadian only models. Well done....
