Default Re: 1930-31 Hubcap tool

Back in the day the hub cap was placed on the wheel the some of the tabs were bent over to keep the cap on the wheel. To remove the hub cap one would first have to remove the wheel.

This tool allows one to "pre-bend" the taps allowing it to be taken on and off with out removing the wheel much like modern hub caps.
