Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you South African members would be able to find a set of original ZA GX hubcaps (preferrably in good condition but will consider anything - beggers can't be choosers...). I'm lucky enough to own an original South African built 1975 1200 GX sedan but it only came with 3 of the original hubcaps and they are all damaged anyway. I think it's probably the only one in Australia so I don't fancy my chances of scoring any over here...
I don't know if there are many spares around for these old Dattos over there but if any ZA members have a set or are able to find a set and are willing to send them down under, please, PLEASE let me know.
Thanks very much for any help!
Cheers, Shane.

They look a lot like 180b wheel covers/hubcaps but i guess there on 12 inch rims, 180b being 13's as you would know. Pity i have 3 yeah 3 one went walk about .

Hey dd! Yep, you'r spot on there - ZA GX coupe and sedan had the same hubcaps. The Delux 4 door sedan however, had it's own unique hubcaps.
They ARE kinda similar to 180b hubcaps.
I've noticed that too Andy but, as you say, 1200's are 12", 180b's 13".
Still hoping to hear from some South African members
Cheers, Shane.

Hi Mildman, pm and email sent. Thanks mate!
And thanks for the link 3Rotor! I didn't have much luck with it yet but I'll give it another go if Mildman doesn't have any.
