I purchased the car from Bob Cobb in 1999. He purchased from original owner Gerald Nelson in 1981. I made contact with Jerry and agreed to bring the car to a show at the Monmouth County Fair he was hosting as the Parks Commissioner the same year.

I took this picture and had him explain the hideous hub caps. I have a wave file of him telling the story of the hub caps(can't seem to get it to play). The other picture is with the dog dish caps with Uniroyal Tiger Paws which is my favorite look for the car.... The last picture is circa 1980.

It's about time. If you like the look, then enjoy it. They are part of the car's history.

I like the white on the front fender extension.

In the vein of this thread, I have never seen a '69 Camaro with this style of wheel cover pictured here. They look like full-size Chevrolet car items.

Here’s another example of trim rings on what appear to be XT wheels. Pretty sure I recall the Lemans Blue ‘69 RS ZL1 Camaro wearing the same wheels in old photos.
