Is the center right one smooth from outer edge to the center bullet? If so, then 49-50 passenger car. If not, maybe aftermarket repop of same?

Center one is mid to late 50s "poverty" cap from when full covers were common. A site I found says 1956, but I can't verify that.

I'm no help on the Mercury and Plymouth units.

Second row center is 1956 and the one to the right is 49-50, bottom row first one is 1961-62 Mercury and I think it is correct for some of the mercury trucks.

Lanny the only difference in 55-56 is the color of paint. The 55 is red and 56 is white.

Center row right looks like what was on our 1950 Ford sedan. Bottom row left was what was on our 1965 Mercury Comet.

With regards to the 1952 - 1953 - 1954 Ford Hubcaps, they are all different. On the 52 Hubcap, the FORD lettering is on a slant. On the 53 and 54 Hubcap, the lettering is vertical and is the same for both years, but the indent for painting the centre of the 54 Hubcap has been added. Note, that Ford Australia painted the Centres Black, while in the USA, they were painted Red. For detail, check out the above photos.
