1970 fleetwood hubcaps

[Cape Cod Fleetwood]

Could someone be kind enough to post a good pic of a gen-you-whine 1970 Fleetwood hubcap?
When the Ark is gone for months, I may as well try to work with the hubcaps.

thanks so much,

I’m sorry, I don’t have an image, but all 1970 RWD wheel covers were the same

Thanks Dave.
So there's a black circle around the center and another black circle on the outer edge? Am I seeing that correctly?

Do you need any mint ones?

Laurie, in addition to the two black circles, there were black lines radiating outward from about 2/3 to the well in the cover. The photos show these, sort of.

Brian I would *LOVE* mint ones, not in the budget.
The paint and brush are already paid for though! LOL!

This is no longer feeling like a resto I can do.

The center crests are sold as replacements and they are actually better than original.  They are the easiest least costly way to really spruce up your hub caps.  I buy the hub caps on e-bay, 3 and 4 at a time for low cost and there is always 2 or 3 of them that are in real nice shape, especially when faded aluminum center crest s replaced.

Hi Scot,
yeah the crests are the 'easy' part, I wanted to get the hubcaps themselves as original as possible with the black paint.

Laurie, I'm sure you can get the black circles and lines. You seem to have a lot pf patience, which will come in handy.

Divide and conquer. It is gonna be a long winter. Count out the lines, figure out how many per sit down, how long a sit down and pace yourself. Use a solvent to degrease the surface.

The thing to remember is the same with any paint work. Don't magnify the flaws in your mind, you are the only one who knows/sees them.

Go to Michaels and find a brush with the closest exact width and use that.

It doesn't have to be perfect, nothing is. Perfection is a state of mind, not a state of being.

THAT should be a bumper sticker....
Thank you for the support.
I'll give this project a definite 'maybe'....
