Title: Factory Hubcaps+Antenna Switch
Post by: dragon574444 on September 28, 2011, 06:39:39 PM
I'm looking for some factory, 14 inch hub caps for my Thunderbird Elan. According to my history report from Ford, it originally came with wire wheels. I wouldn't say no to any other hubcaps as long as they originally came on an 84 Thunderbird. I do need them to come with the center caps naturally.

I also need a new power antenna switch, my old one fell apart right after I bought a new mast. Never got around to putting it in.

Thanks!

I'm sure someone here has a set of wire wheels just collecting dust in their garage, wouldn't you like money instead? :p

I'll check and see if I kept the set that was on my 83 Heritage.

What condition are you looking for?  Many times used ones have the plastics tabs broken or cracked but can still be used if you have the locking kit.

...and check to see if that original wheel is still there.  ;)

I'm not looking for NOS or anything, as long as all 4 are complete and won't fall off. What do you mean by locking kit? My car came with what I think is the tool to remove the hubcaps.

Right now I have turbines with all seasons on them. The back two are nearly bald, so my plan is to take my stock 14 inch wheels and get some cheap winter tires put on them. Then in the summer I'll get some nice tires for the turbines. So I don't need showroom quality, just something to cover the steel rims for a few months.
