    Gorgeous! Hope it will come to Billetproof next year, so I can get a look.

    Are those Cadillac "sombrero" hubcaps? Maybe I'd better check my car, to see if mine are still there. . . :ohmy:

    Question about your Sombrero hubcaps.
    Will the stock Sombreros fit directly onto the Hudson rims. The reason I am asking is that the Hudson hubcaps mount around the inner part of the rim not the outer edges which is what the Cadillac rims do.
    Or...Are they making after market Sombrero hubcaps that mount on the outer edges of the rim without having to modify them.
    Peace,
    Chaz

    Thanks for the compliments!

    With regards to my caps, they are actually Olds caps. 50 or 51-53 Oldsmobile sombrero caps. The use a standard tension spring retainer around the perimeter of the cap.

    My wheels are not stock Hudson wheels, they were custom made by Stockton wheel. The car has had a chassis swap, and the body is chanelled 4 inches over a Grand Marquis chassis.
