Re: Button hub cap I.D.
Casey I love those caps and have some put up, I am pretty sure they showed up in '68 but may be wrong, I had the boxes to a set I bought new back in '84 but lost them in a move, it used to be either you had them or not but with repops on the market it can be tought to tell them apart sometimes, I just picked some up at a garage sale that are repops and are very thick/heavy built and are the chromed version, the originals are fairly thin/light and will dent easy if you get crazy and push them from the middle, are yours stamped with ink on the inside??? and how are they finished on the pinch where they attach the top to the rim clip part???.
they have been called all sorts of things over the years but we always called them "State Patrol Caps"
I liked to run Rallys with no trim rings and these caps, had a real clean look.
Bud.
