Anyone have a photo of a 'deluxe wheel cover' for a 68 hemi gtx? I have a set of little beanie caps, but my car originally came with the 15" deluxe full covers. Thanks!

I didn't know that a hemi gtx had different deluxe hubcaps then the other deluxe hubcap cars.

I don't think they're any different from any other deluxe plymouth 15" wheel cover, but I just don't know what they look like. Anyone have a picture? Thanks!

They're kind of finned; some Chryslers used the same cover. They're pictured in both Plymouth & Chrysler brochures in '68. It was the only 15" wheel cover available for the Belvedere line that year, and maybe for the Furys too. Sorry, but I don't have a picture handy.

The one in the attached picture IS the correct one, MAYBE.
There were actually two versions of it. If your car was also factory equipped with power disc brakes the center of the wheel cover would have "disc brakes" printed around the edge of it. This was true with "C" body Chryslers, Plymouths, and Dodges WITH the 15" wheel option as well as the Hemi "B" bodies with the full wheel cover option.
Either way they are hard to find and the disc brake ones are even harder to find.

Nick's right, that's what's in the brochure and what came on a buddy's '68 Hemi RR new.
