Evidently some type of GM accessory hubcap Charley was the first one to notice them, and he seems to indicate that they are valuable I wouldn't care how rare or valuable they might be - to me they're just butt ugly and they'd never be on any car I would own!

Definitely a car though.....

NOS sets of these caps will occassionally come up on ebay. They don't seem to generate much interest there.

I didn't say they were valuable, just cool Chevrolet pieces. Really cool after I saw the pic with it drag racing with them.

Here's a neat flyer I found years ago,along with some other things from Thompson Chevrolets' Parts Dept. here in VP,just before they became Larry Roesch Chevrolet.
It came in an envelope labeled "For 1969-70 Chevelle-Nova & 1969 Camaro only".
