Does anyone know where I can find new reproduction hubcaps like these? 15" or is it best for me to have these rechromed.

    That's a "2d generation" stepdown cap in your photo ... started in'50, I believe. There are no repro's, but plenty of good ones around at the swap meets, including some nice enough to use as is, or good ones to be rechromed if you've got some that would require expensive work before rechroming. There are some stainless versions of these caps around too, and the ones in better shape can be buffed up to look great.

    If you can make it to the HET International meet at Gettysburg July 24 - 28 you will probably find them at a very reasonable price. You may feel like a kid in a candy store in the swap meet area with all the parts available.

    Maybe at a local HET Chapter meet swap area.

    Check WTN Classified and/or call those listed in the HET Member Products & Services section. I have called them. Some did not have what I wanted but they steered me to someone else that did have what I wanted.

    Someone on the forum may have the hub caps you want.

    Just a few suggestions. I may be wrong but I do not think they are being reproduced.

    Have a good day.
