Re: 1950 shoebox - wheel covers and hub dust covers

If the dust covers have a little metal raised bead near the bottom, use that surface and a flat blade screwdriver to gently tap on the dust cover.

tubman makes a very valid point. Sadly, it seems that each generation must learn the hard way as history fades away and is forgotten - only to be repeated.
