  • Need to borrow a three bolt hubcap

    We'd like to borrow a hubcap long enough to get some needed dimensions off of it. We are tooling up to make fiberglass replica hubcaps. We would like to borrow a hubcap for a week or two for this effort. Hubcap does not have to be pristine. Hubcap will be returned. Let us know if you can help.

    PM me if you have a hubcap you can loan one for a bit.

    Thanks.
    Bill

      If I send/give you a cap, can I have a pair for free?

        Bill,

        I'll loan you my hubcaps. (Feel free to tap out the dents while you have them.) I've got two overseas business trips coming up, so won't be flying again until mid-March.

        PM me your mailing address and I'll ship them to you before I leave next Saturday.

          Got your address Bill, thanks. I'll mail them sometime this week. Good luck with the hubcap project!

            Bill, how much metal bumping have you done? If you need some help getting them smooth let me know. My neighbors will testify I have done a LOT of dent removal and metal smoothing!

              Just trying to bring this thread back to the front page again. Any report on how the new hub caps are doing?

                Hank, I got my original rolled-edge hubcaps back from Bill months ago, so I know he's got the dimensions now.
