WA Chrome '68 GMC caps

[brianelliott0414]

They do not fit correctly if you just pull the ring out and try to put it on a nub style wheel. I used a pair of 4” end cutter pliers and worked my way around the cap and rolled more “meat” inwards, and then worked the roll with a body hammer to give me a nice tight fitting cap. They are absolutely not as perfect as a factory cap, but any imperfections are hidden since it is the area that is tight to the rim. Some of these early caps are very hard to find, so this worked as a great solution for me with only a small time investment. Everybody has their own standards for what they want to accomplish and what is acceptable for their truck. I am more than please with the outcome for what I building.
