Re: IML: hubcaps

[randalpark@xxxxxxx]

One thing that comes to my mind is that the 1965 style seems to look as 
good as anything on nearly any year Imperial after '56. I love the 
covers that belong with each particular year, but I run my '62 LeBaron 
with a mint set of '65 covers. It had them when I bought it, and they 
still look good on it today. I purchased an NOS set of 1962 covers from 
the local dealer back in '79. They were still available! I have them, 
but didn't leave them on the car. I tried them for a while, but the 
'65s seem to suit that car the best. They also seem to be quite 
plentiful!

I have known folks who changed their '57 & '58 models over to 15 inch 
rims, using the '65 covers without attracting too much negative 
publicity. 1965 covers are subtle, yet elegant, but only if you feel 
like you need to try something other than what belongs on your 
particular year car.

Wheel covers are PARTS.

Looking in that section of the club website yeilds a
request for a narrowing of PARTS parameters, so click
on WHEELS AND TIRES.

Clicking on this Yeilds 4 choices, and one is WHEELS
AND TIRES REPAIR. You want to fix what's there now,
so this applies.

Scrolling down this page yeilds a section called
WHEELS that has a PICTORAL REVIEW of all wheel covers
here that answers the question:
