I would pick up a set for sure at that price, somebody volunteer a hubcap for eshan
Hey Ehsan, I'll ship you a hub cap today, please send your shipping address. Thanks, John Pardi, Camino, Calif.
Thanks.. PM sent

What we need is a metal spinner. Anyone on mud have that skill?
I would say at $50 a piece you would sell alot of them. While I have a couple of original stamped bezels that are in great shape most of my origianl hub caps haven't fared so well over the years. People are willing to put a fiberglass bezel on their cruiser but you don't have to worry about fiberglass hubs caps hurting you market for repos of the originals. I would think it would be alot easier to ship these thru DHL/FedEX/UPS then have to deal with a shipping container like the soft tops. I know I would probably buy a couple of sets.
So is there really early hub caps with a hole cut at the factory? The FJ25 parts book doesn't show one but that doesn't mean they didn't make one in later years since these were used into early 1969. So does anyone have one that they know was cut at the factory? Size of the hole, rolled edge? On all of mine the holes are a little different in size and rough edges.

I would pre-order several sets also.
Wow.. I paid WAYYYY more than that for stock ones that have dings and dents.. I"d buy some to run for sure.
Another idea would be to put some kind of mark or imprint on the repros so we could tell the difference

You won't believe this, but I just made a trip to Spector last week and pulled four old caps out of a box Marv had and they are in pretty good shape. I also picked up a 45 spare tire holder(under the bed) and a longbed rack. Well worth the trip and I can say Marv was extremely fair on prices. I appreciated his help tremendously.

that would be raw metal tho and then they will need to be chromed correct?
There's a lot of things he has, I believe, that are listed as unavailable in their catalog, but if you ask he'll have em. He got me a perfect early 60's (with primer) fuel pump.
Yes, Marv has alot of stuff. I got the two front caps (with holes for the hubs) from him a year or so ago. He's also got a pristine set in the display case next to the counter unless they've been sold.
