Valve Stem Caps ID
 
3 Attachment(s)
I came across an old Maxwell House coffee can full of valve stem caps. There are numerous different ones but these are some I am trying to ID. Thanks, Larry

1st and 3rd picture have the caps that are worth $20-50 each.
3rd picture should say Schrader on the bar ontop. Both mentioned are Good Gm 60's to early 70's assembly line installed pieces.

Hi Larry,

The second photo with the USA on top of the cap is what was installed on my mid-60’s “American Racing Wheels” Torque Thrust when new.

They mounted on a DILL valve stem.

The last photo shows the correct cap (DILL 627) which came on both my Survivor GTO’s.

I would be very interested in 4-8 Nice USA Star caps shown in second photo.

Thank you, Chris.

Hard to believe the hobby has progressed this far…wouldn’t be shocked if someone starts reproducing the assembly line correct valve stems.
Do the judges deduct points for missing originals?

I know the NCRS judges deduct for the incorrect valve stem caps.
