1932 repro hubcaps
I have been looking for a set of hubcaps for my roadster project. I have not seen any that had the center painted blue? Who makes the best set for the 32??? Thanks

Re: 1932 repro hubcaps
Most of the time you have to paint your own hubcaps. I do a lot of steelies and caps and all of the caps I order come plain. Bob Drake has in the past offered painted caps but who knows with Back order Bob?

The Bob Drake '32 hubcaps I have seen are painted an incorrect shade of blue. Too light! You would think this would be an easy fix....guess not!

Re: 1932 repro hubcaps
I bought reproduction '33 hubcaps and had a local artist paint them Authentic Ford Blue. He did a good job. The color is very available through Mac's ,etc.

In my macs catalog they have painted and un painted caps. Extra charge for the painted caps though.
