VCCA Home Forums TECHNICAL - 1945 AND NEWER 1949-1954 1949-1950 HUBCAPS

Hi , can someone confirm the difference if any between the 1949 and the 1950 passenger car hup caps and accessory trim-rings, not the standard ring.?
Thanks in advance'
Mike.....

The hub caps are the same except the center of the circle is red in 1949 and gold in 1950.
The common narrow trim ring was available in both 1949 and 1950.
The 1949 had an accessory full wheel cover with and emblem that kinda will remind you of the 1941 hub cap.
The 1950 had the accessory trim ring that fit behind the hub cap and covered everything out to with-in an inch of the tire.

I think the color of the center is different. I can take a picture of the cap and trim ring on my 50 if that would help. Don

Thanks Gene,
Thats what I thought'
