Do you happen to know the story between the different variations of these? I have a set from a 67 SS and the center is black, with the bowtie as bare metal. Basically the opposite of your cap. I've always wondered if there was any reason or if it was just a factory supply thing.

Rick and Ken:

Thanks for the info. I bought the NOS set on ebay. Now to sandblast and repaint the wheels and purchase a set of coker redlines. It blows my mind how much it costs to restore these things to original. To think, we used to take off the factory wheels and F70s, give away the hub caps and spend less money for mags and T/As than these hub caps cost me. Thanks again, Ed
