Hubcap Game TWENTY TWO

[@johntomlin3282]

I never tire of these, thanks so much Steve!

[@donchandler755]

I just happened across your junkyard crawl recently and now I'm hooked. Your knowledge of the cars you discuss and the presentation are excellent.

[@lilmike2710]

Bro!!! I was starting to worry. I'd just told the wife that I hope nothing bad had happened.

Awesome hubcap knowledge!

Thanks for watching!

Always prided myself in hubcap knowledge….Steve you put me to shame! Thanks for sharing

Bucket. List was to copy the hubcap wall the ol timers had in garage wall in 60s

[@Daniel-fd3wp]

@Ger Traba oh ya👍

[@googleusergp]

Better than any "Junkyard Gold", that's for sure. Mr. Magnante is too good of a presenter for them to cancel it.

I missed you this morning, your show is my first watch most every day.

Great video - very informative

[@sonnymoon9851]

Thank you for another hubcap game! I LOVE HUBCAPS!

[@SteveMagnante]

Glad you like them!

[@crazeenydriver]

The 1953 1954 Pontiac hubcap at 1:47 was the first hubcap I ever saw fly off a car in the Bronx NY when I was 5 years old. The car was really beat up and a real clunker and as it went by us the hubcap rolled right onto the sidewalk where we were walking. I brought it back to the apt and have been collecting ever since. Now, in 2023 I own a brick and mortar hubcap store and an eBay store as well, both called *hubcapjoes*

[@MarvinHartmann452]

I love this because I remember when I came in America when I was 15 and I saw all these cars, they looked like so luxurious to me. And everyone could have one. It was something else than my father's trabant.

[@burthenry7740]

Whoa! Thought I missed a HCG!. I was reading some of my old ' Motor Trend' magazines this past week and in the April '58 issue it had a little article on wheel covers. It stated they were made from 301 S.S. a relatively high grade. A little further research showed that food grade S.S. is 304. and is most common. It is an 18-8 mix. 18% chromium and 8% nickel.

[@SteveMagnante]

Very cool!

[@Funsho97]

I Love the Hubcap Game and glad that you continue to do this. I am hoping to one day see the hubcaps/full wheel covers that are on my 1968 Dodge D100.

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

👍👍👍👍

[@jamescadigan925]

This morning was not the same without some Steve! Just happy to be able to enjoy the show regardless of the time. Thanks Steve!!

[@redneck5356]

Thank you Steve . For the hubcap game and junkyard crawl!

[@jeffclark2725]

Well said,Did not know so many hub caps in one place

[@brucejones7389]

That 63 Belair hubcap reminds me of a friend who had one in high school

[@zzzoo2]

Thanks Steve! My favorite this time was the easily the 68 Wildcat. Next would be the 65 Impala SS, then maybe the big Caddy. Caddies seem to make the top 3 a lot...

[@fredglidden8942]

I had a set of those 65 Chevy spinner hubcaps on my 1964 Impala convertible, as a 16 year old kid I thought they were the coolest thing.

[@madmike2624]

Late to the party and a hubcap game....booo, You still Rock Steve and Shane! Cannot wait for tomorrow's upload.

[@mexicanspec]

The Cadillac cap was from a 1958 or 1959 model. The difference was the center cap and I can't remember which year got which color.

[@The_R-n-I_Guy]

These wonderful wheel covers/hubcaps are from a better time. When cars had style and character. When the average person working an average job could afford a new car at least once in their lives. When you could get a car with absolutely no options, check every box, or something in between. Now all vehicles are computerized plastic garbage with too much unnecessary technology. I absolutely HATE new vehicles. Especially those garbage crossovers. Sorry, had to vent. Thanks Steve for showing me things from a better time

[@brianleclerc1593]

My Dad had an 81 Regal with that hub cap. With the square crest.

[@jasonformulaboater357]

I didn't appreciate the hubcap game at first. It took about 12 or 13 before I started getting into them. Now, I love'em. Went back to watch the first dozen this morning. Great stuff.

[@mikebrunello243]

I was starting to have withdrawal's from the hubcaps game lol 😆

[@jime.9185]

The Pontiac wheel cover was 1952 vintage.

[@nickbruni8041]

Grandmom Ober !!! Wit the SS :) Memories

[@SteveMagnante]

Hello Nick Bruni. Thanks for watching and writing. I figure a scoundrel might use the family info to work some future trickery....BUT which grandmother are we talking about here? That narrows the threat by a half. That is so long as nobody learns what the other grandmother's maiden name was. And that is Feldmanskiowiczstein. But I won't tell anyone if you wont! Thanks again for watching. - Steve Magnantefeldmanskiowiczstein

[@davidp2888]

I love how Steve can call out specifics on a lot of these hubcaps.

[@loualiberti4781]

Oh … not the morning ? I’m confused but what a great surprise !

[@timl9cas5696]

[@SupergurlKara]

Happy to see the thumbnail and the wheel cover at 2:39. My first car, a 1965 Impala SS convertible with a 327 and Powerglide, had those.

I'm still waiting for the early 60's Volvo 122 and '67 - '74 Volvo 140 series hubcaps. There has to be at least one in there somewhere.

[@davidcombs8458]

Those Impala SS wheel covers were also used in ‘66. My dad had a ‘66 SS with those wheel covers on it.

[@williammccloud834]

How about a collection of Hub caps by Steve! Put a collection together, and offer for sale to get them out of the junkyard and on someone's garage wall? What you think?

[@chriscadman6379]

Can you do a selection of different MAGS.

[@chrislemaster2695]

The Ford Granada Wagon was made from 1981-1983 on the Fox Platform (Second Generation)

Haaa! Meat tenderizer hubcap for a squirrel is wicked funny! Man you know your caps SM! Should do a “stump the hubcap master” show! Awesome sauce!

[@gillgetter3004]

I remember seeing all these wheel covers and hub caps. Knew several men and women in the plants stamping them out!!!

[@chrisscearce]

Hi Steve, great video with this the 22nd installment of the Hudcap game. I speak for everyone here we all were concerned when your video didn't drop in the morning as usual. I figured you were personally okay but maybe had power or internet problems due to the snowstorm in Massachusetts. Stay safe out there. Remember to hit that like button, everyone. Namaste 🙏🏼

[@jeffclark2725]

Always enjoy these hub cap games, this place must be huge

[@richardbates2367]

Alot of the hubcaps would be a neat touch to people's project cars and trucks and use some of them from something else or something older than the vehicle as long as it fits the wheel clips in place doesn't harm or damage the valve stem or interfere with suspension components and hubs like the trucks sticking through the wheel can really change the look of your project and you don't have to broke on a new set of wheels i did that alot as I was younger kinda like the 89 Chevy S10 regular cab short bed 2wd el trim truck? Ehm i had i ran 14x6 Buick Regal steel mag wheels on the s10 with Douglas performance gt tires on the s10

[@DanEBoyd]

Our 1970 LTD had those wheel covers first featured. It was a four door in white, with a black vinyl top - and that 390 2V... '65 Impala SS? There was a rusty one near me when I was young. It was light blue, 283, Powerglide, and it had a vacuum gauge on the console! Even the little bright metal rings on the taillights were rusted/corroded!!!

[@artjones2498]

Sorry steve..in 81 - 82 the granada went to the fairmont chassis layout they did offer a station wagon

[@googleusergp]

Correct, Pontiac 287 CID V8 for 1955. That's not correct on the Granada, you could get it as a wagon in 1982, the final year for the Granada. They would have been assembled in Hapeville (Atlanta), GA or Chicago, IL. The latter plant still operates today and Hapeville closed in 2006. Yes, the SS package was an appearance package in some cases, so yes, you could it with a six-cylinder engine. That looks like a Regal hubcap from the 1980s, say 1983 or so. Those would have been mid-size A or G body cars. Nah, no confusing that Sun-turd hubcap with anything to do with a Trans Am. LOL. That ink stamping was likely put on by the vendor that supplied them to Chrysler, yes. Many times they will put the customer's (manufacturer's) part number on it for them to keep track of what they are selling. Katie is coming by for a visit. She's a good woofer, very well-behaved. You mean "Delta 88" as there was no "Delta 98". It would have been a "98 Regency" if anything. No, those are 1980 and up full size Oldsmobile wheel covers, more like the Delta 88 (the 98s had a smaller center section). Both ITT Industries and Norris made them for GM, and the difference is the clip design that holds them to the wheel and the locking bolt down the center. You can make a "Type 1 and a half" of sorts, which is what I did. I use the later parts and made them work on the 1st design parts as the clips are better and they stay on the rim better. Those rocket snap on emblems and most of the wheel parts were available well into the 1990s and early 2000s.

[@samholdsworth420]

This is my favorite "filler" content Steve 😎

[@markchandler90]

1:55 is 1954 Pontiac. 1953 was the same but with red trim rather than white.

[@ericesterby2895]

The Buick Wildcat wheel cover is from a ‘64, just like the car you spotlighted. that you called a ‘66.

[@rimtrim]

If you compare that wire Olds cap with the 15" Buick from a previous video, you'll notice that they look almost the same on the outside, but all the parts are different. Not a Buick vs. Olds difference actually, but a Norris Industries vs. ITT difference. There's also a Norris version of the Olds cap, which is identical to the Buick except the center hub. GM added ITT as a second supplier for these in the early '80s, which resulted in a lawsuit between the two suppliers. Norris lost the suit, establishing that the visual appearance of a wire wheel cover is not copyrightable.
