What year hubcap is this?

[epw1949]

Its hard to tell by the picture, but if the V/8 on this hub cap is concaved it's a 36. To me the picture looks like the V/8 is convexed making it a 37. I have some of those hub caps, and when Pages Model A went out of business, I bought all their hub caps, from 28 to 48.Ed

Hmmm..I will have to take a look when I get home from work. I can't recall myself.

Here are photos of the 1936 Ford Hubcap (top) and the 1937 Ford Hubcap (Lower). At a close glance, they appear to be the same, but as has been mentioned by CaliforniaBorn36, the V8 and outer ring are recessed on the 36 Hubcap and raised on the 37 Hubcap. The Ford Pilot Hubcap has a plain centre, no V8 emblem or ring.

These are the accessory Spider Hubcaps for the 36 Ford (top) and 1937 Ford (lower). Once again, they are both very similar, but the V8 and ring on the 36 Hubcap is recessed, while it is raised on the 37 Hubcap.

Thank you for the great pictures Mercman. Yep, that is what I have, 36 Ford hubcaps all polished. I took one off and they are stainless with a steel ring where the clips hold on to it. There is a number written on the inside 68-1130B. Does that number line up with a 36 hubcap as well? I am looking in my 38/39 EFV8 FORD book and it of course does not show that number. It talks of a 68-1130C but doesn't show a picture.

I appreciate the help. Regards, Jeremy
