Rim Center Cap July 23, 2007, 12:58:22 PM Possibly the worst thing that has happened to me so far with this car to date, the center cap for my no longer made rims flew off somewhere and now needs to be replaced. Does anyone know where I can get one of these center caps? Like most parts to these cars I will probly have to pay dearly for it. Any help or suggestions would be great. Thanks in advance. They are cragar rims. If a size of the center is needed I can get that too.They look like this: Quote Selected

Rim Center Cap Reply #5 – July 24, 2007, 06:08:13 PM I honestly have NO idea. My grandad had a 91 Dodge Conversion Van to pull his 32' enclosed trailer for the longest time and it had those wheels too. (He just sold it earlier this year). I'd imagine the backside of the wheel could have some markings. I almost want to say American Racing made/makes them... Quote Selected
Rim Center Cap Reply #6 – July 24, 2007, 06:43:53 PM Are they the Centerline wheels? Red Spar mentioned something about having or knowing of a pair, unless his are the Centerline wheels. I dont know if that helps. Quote Selected

Rim Center Cap Reply #9 – July 24, 2007, 10:46:45 PM I was in the tire/wheel business a few years ago and thought that they looked like American Racing wheels. A few searches and came up with it. Be sure to measure them before ordering. Jim Quote Selected
Rim Center Cap Reply #10 – July 24, 2007, 11:23:06 PM yeah, i sent the seller a pm already saying that they are a little wider than mine are and if they will overhang at all. we shall see. Maybe this is a sign for me to get new rims? I have yet to find some that look as good as these. Id like a good set of aluminum rims but....yeah. Quote Selected

Rim Center Cap Reply #13 – July 26, 2007, 06:30:22 PM Was driving around the slum area today in the Springs and found some hub-cap dealer from the 80's and he just happen to have 2 of the same caps I got. I only paid 5 bucks for both too. Thanks to all for your help in this issue. The bird can once again rock on....yeah. Quote Selected
