I was wondering if the proper caps for a '41-'46 truck would fit this wheel? In general, do hubcaps interchange between car and truck for these years? Wheels within the 1/2t - 3/4t range. Thanks!

I bought '39 passenger car 6 lug wheels and my '46 hubcaps fit those wheels and the '39 hubcaps fit my '46 wheels. Do the wheels have the riveted clips where the hubcap fits?

Big Tee. my wheels are passenger car 15" 5 lug with riveted clips. the clips look identical to a set of chevy 6 lug 17" high clearance wheels ive got... i dont have a hubcap on hand to compare. by the way, your '46 is very nice, hope to get my truck in similar shape. 1946 1/2 ton truck http://lh4.ggpht.com/_pwQXlvgxOj8/S4K004GeBCI/AAAAAAAAAks/eraDtC1BMGA/s912/IMG_2284.JPG
