There is a widely circulate video of a Ford dealer promo about the new 32 Fords. Towards the end is a tour of the shop area. There is a "customer" 32 3W with full covers on it. How rare would 18" covers be?

Bonesy, saw those on ebay. They're pretty cool! That's the only set like that I've ever seen.

I'd never seen a set like it before either. They look cool - but I can't believe how heavy they are.

I have 1 that from memory is different to the above pictures and is intended for use on the spare wheel with the locking hub cap. I've got it ready to straighten a couple dings and then polish. Will post a picture when I get home in a couple weeks.

I've seen ads for these and they say they're for 33-34 wheels as well. Are they the same ones as the '35 wires or separate caps? I would really like to find a set for my '33 wheels.

An interesting option for the day. Put basically a hubcap over wire wheels!

Anybody have a line on info about 17" Lyon Caps or perhaps if the 16" units fit all 3 years?

i saw some of them on a car yesterday, the guy said that a guy from Hop Up magazine makes them

Justin Baas from Hop Up makes Lyons and Brewster-style wheel covers for 16, 17 and 18 inch wheels. I picked up some last year, they're nicely-made parts.

Hi all hope I'm not flooding the page with this subject but was directed to this thread in hopes of finding info on the wheels in the pics.

The car has been in the family for over 70 years and still going strong!
Thanks in advance for any insight you may have.
