Hi folks,
check the inaugural trip report in another post - but I forgot to include I tossed a hubcap somewhere between home and the beach. 16.5 inch wheel - jumping to aluminum was not in the budget.

If you can name the brand/type of hubcap and/or put me in touch with someone who has a replacement or two sitting in their barn, I would be much obliged.
Thanks

Mine are stainless. Hadn't even thought about ebay - I checked and found some similar stuff, but all in sets of four or six.

Tiler,
I bought a used 16" one from a guy locally who was advertizing on Craig's List. It seems to be a loosing battle to keep those things on though. I had lost two by the time I switched to the Eagle wheels.

If you are coming to the Branson Rally, I have a few hubcaps that I don't need anymore. I live just a short distance from Branson.
For anyone else, I have the large drivers side window as well as the two bedroom windows. $50.00 each and will be donated to our web support guys. These are from a '77 Palm Beach.

Clear or white cable ties.
Tie them to the wheels and they will not fall off. Carry spare ties because every time you remove them you will have to cut the ties.
