Was hoping someone would have the part numbers for these years of mag wheel caps. I have a set of mag wheel covers but not shere what year they are off of. Need the numbers for each year so I can identify mine and have them in the future that way I know if I run across a set. thanks for the help,greatly appreciated!!!!!

The '65-66 style have spokes that are straight towards the peak and seem to have a raised cap on them; the '67-'69 have a slight curve as the go out towards the peak and don't seem to have the cap that sticks out from that. It's very subtle. I also believe (although I'm not positive) that after '69 (69-76?) the mag-style wheel cover was a dealer-installed accessory. It was the same as before but carried charcoal paint accents in the spokes.

Last year I purchased a set of 4 n.o.s mag-style wheel covers. Surprise! They're 15" versions. I didn't know Chevy made them in anything other than 13" or 14". My part # is '3968716 - GarWood'. Also they have '69' ink stamped on them, as is the part #.
