Are any of these being reproduced? If not, I'll eventually look for some and put a post in the wanted section of the forums.
Thanks!

FYI - the 1933 and 1934 Standard used one hub cap. It was 6" in diameter and made for wire wheels.
The late 1934 and all 1935 Standards had a larger 7 3/4" hub cap for the wire wheels. This cap was also used on the 1936 Standard with OPTIONAL wire wheels. These optional wheels were 19" and a I never saw a 1936 with them.
The hub cap for a 1936 Standard with the production artillary wheels, which every one seemed to have, are desinged to fit on the clips riveted to the wheel and are around 7 1/2" in diameter.

The '34-'35 Standard cap (wire wheel) and the '36 Standard cap (artillery wheel) share the same skin. The paint scheme is different.
I have heard rumors that the skins were being reproduced in Australia but I have never seen them advertised for sale.

They may share the same skin but the base is vey different due to the manner in which the hub cap is attached to the wheel.

I made some tools years ago to remove dents. I restored a few.
I can fix them if they are not severely creased.
