Also since I am trying to keep thing...

Ran into a guy at the flea market that was looking for a radiators for a 49 american pontiac. I have one from a 50 and assume it is the same? He says he has two but the rad shop tells him the tanks are gone. Is this common? Does old age cause this or are they just wore out? The one I have looks in excellent shape but...

Hey everyone. Does any one know of a way to use my original 53 hub caps on a modern steel wheel. I have one stock rim left and would like to convert to a stock looking wheel set up with wide rears and narrow front steel wheels. Not original but kind of "old school" I guess.
