Title: 68 hub cap paint colors ?
Post by: Rukiddin on March 01, 2021, 11:49:06 AM
It appears there are three different colors on a 68 hub cap. What will be best match for each? The "pan" looks like flat black,no gloss at all. The centers are more faded and not sure of original colors. Any help appreciated!

Use argent silver and cast grey. Flat black is correct

Still the same.  ;D

If you are changing the center emblem, the snake "sits" on the valve stem hole.

i have the originals off of my 68, never been on the car, and some of the originals off our dealerships car, that were on the car for a year that look the same, but at one time they changed something on them and when we ordered one, we got a complete set from ford. the color looked a little different. i still have all the caps, but am unable to go look at them. any thoughts? early caps that got replace on dealer car were sent one at a time (curb rash, fell off whatever, but last one ordered came as compete set, for price of one0 phred
