I am planning on useing dog bowl hubcaps on my 66C10. A friend found a couple at a swap meet or at least he thought he had found a couple. To make a long story short he bought the caps and they are to small. They have the red center with the chrome bow tie but the will fit inside of the stock caps. Can anyone tell me what these might fit.

Any way you can post a pic? It sounds to me like they may be passenger car, maybe Chevelle/Nova.

I have been to a used hub cap store and there are a large number of different sized hub caps for GMC and Chev trucks. 1/2, 3/4, and one ton. They had all sorts in all sorts of shape and reasonable prices. Also the old "Moon" style hubcaps that are used on trailers now.
The lady at this store, (Edmonton Alberta), was very knowledgeble about what fit what.
I think most larger cities have stores like that.
But... old for them was probably no older than the '60's
Hope this might help.

Several years ago, I saw some hub caps like the ones you described. I was told that they fit a Chevrolet van with smaller rims.

I found this online vendor that had photos of center caps with a description of what models they fit. It might answer your question.

Randy,
I appreciate the reply. The caps I have look like the type 11 caps shown on the web site, but they are smaller in diameter and are not as deep.

Thank you again,

Gary
