Yes, the Olds Fiesta Wheel Discs ( the term 'hub cap' was falling out of
favor by then )
were really nice, but many of us thought that the Dodge Lancer discs with
the knight's
head on them and four bars were even better looking . Although I never had
a set on
any of my cars, the aftermarket discs with the five or so concentric rings,
known as 'Flying Saucer' discs, were my favorite. I have only seen them on
several nostalgia cars at
shows in the last forty plus years. I still have a set of snap-in style
Moon disc aluminum covers that I had on my '49 Ford coupe for a while .....
AND
the original box they came
from Los Angeles in .... circa 1955 ! I recall trying to get them firmly on
the wheel without
putting dents near the outer edge was quite a trick ........
