Hello,
Can anybody help? I'm getting married in 5-weeks and we are taking my 48 f-2 from the church to the reception and I need (4) hubcaps that will fit my f-2s rims. They are no longer available from any vendor that I can find. Does anybody have any used in decent condition hubcaps or know where I can get some new or used ones? I talked her into taking the truck from the church and after 3-years of restoration it's the last thing to make it look complete.
Please let me know if you can
help.

 

Dennis Carpenter has them in his catalog.

I actually tried to order these from them 2-weeks ago and they havnt been able to get any hubcaps from their supplier since 2009.

 

Mac's also listed them but if Dennis Carpenter doesn't have them I doubt Mac's would.

This post is a perfect example of why you should list your location listed there might be someone close by who has a set that would either sell or lend them to you. Your profile says MA but that doesn't help much.

 

Google the part number, 2J-1130-A, there are quite a few links that come up with prices from $35 to $75 each. Most places listed them as in stock.

Good luck on both the wedding and finding the hub caps.

 

In the 1950's, Ford added suffixes to many part numbers, that never had them originally. This hubcap part number is a typical example.

So, if you're googling (or using PartsVoice.com .. like I am), type the number with/without a suffix.

2J-1130-A (replaced 2J-1130) .. Hubcap / Obsolete

COLLECTORS AUTO SUPPLY in Oroville WA has ONE 2J-1130-A = 800-414-4462.

ANTIQUE AUTO SUPPLY in Arlington TX has ONE 2J-1130 = 817-275-2381.

 

If you can't find a new set anywhere else, I'll part with a new set I bought years ago and today have no need for. My M-Hs don't use them. Stu

 

Maybe you can get the two NumberDummy posted and put them on the side of the truck that will be in the pictures.

 

Hello truck dog,
I would be very interested in buying these hubcaps if you would still be interested in selling them. You can call me at (617)-571-1600 or email me at chrisw@baystateair.com

Thank you very much!!!

 

I just pulled them off the shelf and will repack them for shipping. I'll email you. Stu

 

Ha!You'll pay many times over for making her ride in a 63-year old truck on her wedding day, no matter what she may say to the contrary!

Actually,sounds fun,and kudos to Stu for helping in a short time frame.

UPS will have a box of hub caps tomorrow morning headed east. Chris's new bride should have no qualms at all riding to the reception in this beauty. I told Chris in one of our swapped emails that we'll be needing a wedding picture with the truck. Let me be the first to give my best wishes to the "to be" newlyweds. Stu

 

I'd be proud to ride to my own funeral in that!

 

Wow!! Beautiful truck! Does your fiance know she's only number 2 in your heart?

 

Great looking truck...That's where I'm trying to go with mine.

Best wishes to you and the Bride. I agree, we need wedding pix.
