Can anyone identify this Ford Hubcap for me? It looks genuine, but is very unusual. Any help appreciated.

English Ford Y, 1932 - 1935.

Thanks Bick for directing me in the right direction. I don't own a Y Model Ford, but was asked the question. Looking at the quality of the hubcap, I knew that it had to be an original Ford product, and not a Repro. Problem solved. The above picture shows the small British built Y Model Ford which have these hubcaps.

I run a Y-model dizzy in my Model B powered speedster, works great. The reason I run that is it only has 10* dist advance (20* crank) and that's what I need. Slips right into any A or B head.
