Mini hubcaps (real Mini, not BMW MINI)? Not sure how you'd fit them though.

Apoligies for the world's cr@piest photo, but these are mini hubcaps (I think), I welded a strip across the centre of the wheel with a speed nut in the middle and drilled the centre of the hubcap and secured it with a cap head bolt. A neater way would be three small tabs welded to the wheel and small self tappers around the edge of the hubcap.  |

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down  and that's not really the car's fault. |

Well these are Minor Commercial caps that my car was wearing for a while. Same as the normal ones but without the "M" in the middle.  Austins had a smoother edge design with an A in the centre and again there were commercial ones without, like the Sun-tor's.  Hope that's of some help! |

Follow your dreams or you might as well be a vegetable. |

seriously, my mates hubcaps are held onto his 46 ford pickup like that - I couldn't believe it when I saw how they were fixed, but it sticks like sh&t to a babies blanket!
