Set of 4 Reproduction 70 caps: BE&A $210.00 USDMike Ross is great to deal with and will most likely cut you a better "Moparts Member" deal.  PG Classics $165.00 USDSame manufacture, You'll need to deal with a friendly Asian lady  and the parts will be shipped from Canada. Avoid speaking to her directly and purchase off of EBay for the same price.  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1970-Char...sQ5fAccessories

The link to the EBay ad that I listed are POT Metal not plastic. In my opinion, they are an excellent affordable reproduction part, available from several vendors.

I have an older mcg magazine that featured a vendor that was making them out of plastic. Since the price of those is a lot less than the typical $200+ price that other guys want I figured those might have been the plastic versions.
I thought Penstar Reproductions offered a plastic version.

I need a set eventually.
Are the new ones on ebay made of plastic, or are they pot metal like the originals?
The pricing for these things seems to vary quite a bit when you start shopping around.
The ones from PG sold on Ebay are metal.

Hello , I had the plastic repop ralley centers for about 2 years , sold a lot of them. For a good while the quality was good , but I didn't like the color of them and repainted all that I sold. Later the centers I recieved were of lesser quality , the outter edge of the cap was clouded about half way around. They seemed to get worst and the guy who I was getting them from would not do anything about it. So I just told him they were not up to my standards and do not send me any more. The orginal guy I bought from , sold the rights to another guy , then the quality went down. Also this same guy kept promising me they would do the small bolt caps in plastic , and never came thru with that promise. Frank
