NOS wire hubcaps on eBay


I don't know that we've decided the US and Canadian wire spokes are the same yet, but here's a set of brand new NOS caps.  They want $1600, which is a little rich for me.  I paid $1500 for NOS truck caps that were rare, but there were 58 other bidders behind me, whereas no one is bidding on these:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/69-70-PONTIAC-CATALINA-BONNEVILLE-NOS-15-WIRE-HUBCAPS-pt-988567-/361398135823?fits=Year%3A1969%7CMake%3APontiac%7CModel%3ABonneville&hash=item542501ec0f:g:88cAAOSwBmZWCYOU&vxp=mtr

These ones do say PMD.

Those are pretty!

I remember a really nice 69 Firebird 400 convertible in Ancaster back around the late 70s that wore a 14" set of those. Crystal Turquoise with black top & black Custom interior, the nice Hydro shifter in the woodgrained console... Probably had redline tires on it when new.

Back around 2002 I found a set of NOS Mag Style Chevrolet covers in a box, I can't remember if I paid 6 or $700 for them but I scrambled to get the cash. They were similarly expensive (and heavy) wheelcovers as the wires were when new.

That sellers stuff is ALWAYS priced pretty high......but they ARE nice.

If they were 14"....the price is more realistic....because GTO's came with 14's.....

I really don't see B body hubcaps commanding that much $$$....

Those caps are US only. I have two cars that have them, my LeMans has the 14" and my 4 door bonneville has the 15" version. MoboMac is correct that the 15" have very low value, even the 14's which can go on GTO's and Firebirds don't pull money because everyone wants rally wheels.

I paid $400 a few years ago for a SET OF 4 14" NOS ones still in the box and I think I was the only bidder (I never bothered installing them, since my originals look nearly new). If my bonneville ones were in bad shape I might envision paying say $600 for those 15's but above that I can buy a nice set of rally's, nos trim rings, now centers, professionally paint them and still come in for half of what that guy wants for those caps.

They have been on eBay for 2 years and he's never cut the price, I admire his stubbornness!

Shortly after I signed on here....in 2008.......I bought a set of really NICE 14" PMD wires from Todd.......

These are as close to NOS as you could get....without being in the boxes....

I had sorta forgotten about them.......and found them under my bed......when I was moving last spring......smile

I have a highly optioned 1970 Formula 400......that came with them......but car is not near as nice....as these caps are...right now....
