We sell a bunch of Classic OEM Hubcaps, so I thought it'd just be fair to tell you about the ones that we sell the most. Ready? If you want to take notes, be my guest.
1968 Dodge Charger
When the second generation was released, it had a totally redesigned B-body lineup. It was even further distinguished from the other Dodge Coronet models - but it still had the flashy Dodge Charger Hubcaps on it.
The designer - Richard Sias - had developed double-diamond coke bottle profile that included a bunch of sophisticated curves around the front fenders and rear quarter panels. Both the front and rear end sheet metal was designed by a man named Harvey J. Winn. The back of the car had a "kick up" spoiler appearance that was inspired by the Group 7 Racing cars that existed back in the day.
Chevrolet Corvette
The very first generation of the Chevy Corvette and Chevrolet Corvette Hubcaps is what we're going to be talking about.
It was first introduced late in the 1953 model year and then ended in 1962. It was often referred to the "solid-axle" model because the whole independent rear suspension "thing" didn't really make its debut until the 1963 Sting Ray came out. There were a total of 300 hand-built polo white convertibles produced for that year (1953); this made it the most wanted and also most rare Corvette out of them all.
The 1955 model and Chevrolet Corvette Hubcaps offered the 265 cu in (4.34 L) V8 engine as an option .. even though the very first 7 "off the production line" had come with the standard "Blue Flame" Inline-6.
1966 Ford Mustang
The 1966 Ford Mustang & Ford Mustang Hubcaps were part of the first generation. It's considered to be the very first "pony car" that was ever in the market. It was initially started as a hardtop and convertible with a different fastback version that was put on sale the next year. When it was barely making a name for itself, the car had been fit into a compact car segment.
When it was released in 1966, it had some moderate trim changes to it; changes included a new grille, side ornamentation, OEM Ford Mustang Hubcaps and gas cap. There was a cruisematic 3-speed automatic transmission that was available or the 225-hp V8. Both of the 1965 and 1966 models had differentiated by modifications in the exterior, despite similar design.
1968 Chevrolet Camaro
The very first generation Camaro & Factory Chevrolet Camaro Hubcaps had appeared on September 26, 1966 for the 1967 year. When the 1968 model came out, there was no more side vent windows .. but there was a new fresh-air-inlet system. Other things added included side marker lights on the front fenders , a front grille that was more "pointy", a front spoiler, and divided rear taillights. The front running lights were also changed from circle shaped to oval shaped! When the shock absorber "thing" was mounted on to the vehicle, it was made to be staggered in order to fix the hop issues that people were religiously complaining about. It was also designed to give the higher performance models multi-leaf rear springs instead of single-leaf units.
There was a total of 235,147 models made: 40,977 of the RS models, 27,884 of the SS models, and only 7,199 of the Z28 models.
Out of these models, which one would you choose? Which Original Hubcaps would you put on it? Let me know!
