Who ever has a 1954 3100 and are looking for hubcaps I came up with a simple solution not perfect but they look good. My wheels require a 7.5 inch hubcap I bought some new ones and then I went to a sign shop who made me up some vinyl Bowties for the centers. I think they turned out great... If you go to my albbum on picture trail you will see some original caps and then the new ones which are chrome....
Just thought this might interest someone. The caps you get from the after market companies didn't fit my wheels... The cost was $80.00 complete... Peter

They look good. I had thought of that with my 53 and was going to use the decals from an after market supplier. But I think the vinyl ones are probably going to last longer.

That was some good thinking.
