1930/31 AA Truck stainless hubcaps .

[john charlton]

My 1931 AA Truck has stainless hubcaps on the front . I thought this was peculiar to English AA trucks . I was watching on "You Tube" "1930 Ford Model AA Walk Around " at 13.18 mins there looks like a stainless cap on a USA truck . Just wondered if you had them in USA as well as England .

If this is the video it just looks like a beat up hubcap painted silver to me.

My 31 AA has screw-on hubcaps the color of the wheel. But...since we are on the subject, the rear has a nut with cotter pin, and looks like something can screw on to cover it to keep it clean. Did they make something like that for the rear?

[john charlton]

You are missing your rear hubcaps . They are nickel plated mild steel and not available in reproduction . I think you will find used on "ebay" etc etc . Just paint your front ones silver they will look well better ! The lug nuts should be nickel also .

According to the Judging Standards the 1930-31 Budd five spoke wheel used
cadmium plated hub caps.

The hub caps were cadmium plated as were the lug nuts. The rear hub cap is similar to the front cap but long / taller and had internal threads.

Yes Brad that is it .

Here are mine. Can see the size difference between the front and back.

I checked Ebay for rear caps, $100 each. I'll keep looking, but if anyone comes across two at a reasonable price, shoot me a line. No grease exposed on the rear, so it's more of a dust cover, no big hurry.
