If anyone has a close up picture of these vintage Rocket Wheel Center caps I am trying to get a close up picture of the Center Cap decal to see the original lettering font so I can duplicate the original decal. I have had no luck searching the internet or various vintage wheel places. Thanks

Nasblu, go to kustomwheel.com I see they have an old Rocket sales book from 1968 on there website under the 60s tab. It has the same picture you just posted and maybe they would be willing to scan the center cap for you to get a better close up! It might be worth a try and it is a cool sight to check out.
