Mercury hub cap-center cap question
Anyone know of a source for the hub caps shown in this photo?? I had one in the trunk of the 54 Mercury I bought, but I think it's for a 55 or 56.

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
These "Dog Dish" Hubcaps with the white centre are correct for the 1956 Mercury Medalist |

The Centres on the 1953-1955 models were pained Red. In 1956, the Centres were painted off White. |

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
Hi Bob, As I live in Australia, there are none here. The last year that Ford Australia sold the Mercury was 1948. I believe that they are not that common. I have one in my collection of Mercury Hubcaps and teh Centre is unpainted. If I found another one, I could paint the Centres of one Red and the other White. Regards Mercman <><

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
I like the looks of those hub caps. Do any of you know if they will fit on a stock 1951 Mercury steel wheel? Might want to try and find a set for my Y- Block powered Model a coupe. Thanks for any thoughts and info.--- Jim

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
Every now and then I look at eBay to see if I can find a set of dog dishes for my 53, but in more than six months I haven't found anything.. The large ones are much more available

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
Do the search and then save the search. Ebay will notify you when they come up. They show up from time to time.

Re: Mercury hub cap-center cap question
How is the cap held to the wheel? Does it snap over the three knorbs (?) on the wheel itself?
I can see a set on chrome reverse wheels ...
