Ford hub caps

Does anyone know if they make reproductions of of either of these? I’m thinking they’d look pretty good on my ole 56 F-100. I’ve got outie numbs on my 15” rims.

Check Dennis Carpenter. How much do they want for those on eBay?

Both were used with some “light” damage so I didn’t save them. I’m not familiar with them so I don’t know if they’re SS or Chrome, Probably Chrome.
Here’s a couple more. Sorry I can’t figure out how to The the pictures off eBay.

Hey BJ, If you have the stock front hubs make sure these will clear before spending big $s for a set. See link.

Thanks for the tip! I didn’t think about them not fitting over the front hubs. Any idea how deep they would need to be?

Sorry I don't know what type of a spacer you would need to make the cap work. Kevin tried this and it did not work. Unfortunately Kevin passed away so we won't be able to ask him. You could get a single cap off of ebay and see what the clearance problem is?

You might have a little more clearance with those? Contact the vendor, maybe you can get some dimensions that would confirm fitment?

I have seen those on our trucks before with the outie rims.

I have a new set of 4 that I picked up just for this reason. If I get a truck to sell and it has the late model rims on it as these look good on a 53-56
