67 vette guy Jan 20th, 08, 10:08 PM Is this what is called a poverty hubcap? 3916434 is written in pencil on the inside of the cap. I got three of them off a 1968 4 door Malibu. They look pretty cool. Tomorrow I'll run them through the dishwasher and polish them up. Should I go back for the rims?

Chris_69_SS Jan 21st, 08, 11:30 AM Or COPO Caps....but that'll make em 3x the price!!! DaleM Jan 21st, 08, 1:56 PM Different names for them. They were the base hub cap (i.e. no charge) if full wheel covers (or rally-type wheel if applicable) were not ordered or mandatory. 'Poverty' because the buyer didn't opt for wheel covers, 'dog dish' I guess because someone turns them over and puts dog food in them. | ||
