'65 Acadian Beaumont SD Convertible, Lost Hubcap :( Help Please
Permalink  

After almost 45 years I lost a hubcap. 

New top for my baby in June, new garage (not the one in the pic) almost done and what happens ....... I go and lose an original hubcap cry within 20 miles of home. 

Removed the remaining 3 and put away.




Where on earth am I going to find another?

I have bought and sold at least two sets of these at the Barrie flea market over the last couple of years.  They are out there.

Thank you so much for the advice and it's good to know that they're still out there. This was the first place I thought of to mention this. I'll try to get in here more often.

kelico, I'm in no rush. And yes, I'd be very happy if you can find one for me. How do we get in touch with each other?

There are Chevy hubcaps on it right now and I've bought 4 new 'smoothie' rims that may or may not look ok. I'll use the originals when I need to.

I responded, keli ..... I wrote a bit about the car in the bio section.

Here's a pic of the new rims.  I think these look ok, certainly better than nothing.  Old stuff is put away.

I like your taste in cars. I have a hard top in those colors. I would put 65 lemans spinner caps on the car because they look like a Beaumont cap but are far more common. I run them on all my 65 SD Beaumonts. The only difference is the Pontiac motor division on the spinner. There is a full set on ebay for 80.00 US. It sucks to lose a original.

the moons look pretty cool... I like the stockers or standard rallies too.

Ok, I've ordered the specs from GM Vintage Services. Want to bet I'll now find all of those notes made 10 years ago?
