Removing caps on '37 hubcaps?

[Seth Swoboda]

Drill a small hole on the back of the hubcap through the steel. Be careful as not to go through the stainless cap on the outside. Use compressed air to blow air into the small hole. The cap should come off.

Seth is spot on. I place the cap over a thick towel to "catch" the stainless part.
