At least the screws are period correct with triangles.

Rotated, tilted, cleaned up, as my neck was hurting.

The slots are fine but that car has handmade/bespoke hubcaps. Porsche and Ferrari would charge $10k for that today. I’d make a duplicate set and run them everywhere and tell the story.

No muffler . The mufflers were the chambered tubes.

Thats a cool car with weird hubcaps

I can see why the guy replaced those right away.

Definitely interesting to say the least.

Curious if it happened with any others and the story/hubcaps were just lost in translation over the years.

Thanks for sharing!
