4x hubbies originally from a wagon.

same as pictured...
Open in new window


roll in classic original datsun style with these babies, average condition, could do with a paint but otherwise good.

Going cheap... NZ$90 which is a pityful AU$71.3193 plus postage.

These 'dogdish' type hubcaps came in two versions on our early Datsuns.
One was stamped in steel. It was reasonably thick & did not have a rolled edge & were painted.
I bought a set new, chromed them & used them on widened 12" wheels on my wifes green 1000 Sedan. With the stainelss trim rings they looked fabulous.

The other type seem to have been stamped in stainless steel. The material is thinner & is more easily dented, but they are permanantly 'bright'. They have a rolled edge to give some strength to the thnner material.
I actually bought one of each, brand new, to see which one I liked best, then bought 3 more of my prefered one for the 1000, which means that I still have the new stainless one.

Which of the two types do you have?

P.S. I was saddened to see that you had removed the 'fleet numbers' from your Ute. I thought that they added a certain measure of individuality. Never mind.

i have the metal, painted type.

The fleet numbers... i know i know, i kinda liked them aswell and yea they did kinda add a bit of individuality... BUT there are 2 Lendich construction utes on the road off mine and 3 in the city, etc etc so it wasnt really being individual to keep em.

Looks much cleaner without them i rekon, #123 is still my racing numbers though

edit: i still get jokes about 123 at work all the time.
123 123 calling 123 breaker breaker etc etcetc
