Another rusty pair of WH hubcaps!

[Hammerhead 817]

I had these old rusty WH hubcaps sitting on a junky 312-8 for years. Stray cats were peeing on the rear ones and rusted them out pretty bad. The fronts were covered in grease from over greasing the front rims(lucky for me!). They cleaned up like new ones. I figured the rears were junk anyway, so I took a wire wheel to them to see what would happen. You can't ruin something that is junk in the first place. So it took awhile but they cleaned up fairly descent considering how they looked before! I took 4 OOOO steel wool on them after the wire wheel, they look pretty good afterall. I mounted them on my nice 310-8 Speed that I got from callen on this site. Looking good Chester! Keith

They did clean up good! Also they are a nice finishing touch for the 310-8.

Nice polish job on the "baby moons."

What (polish / protectorant) did you use after the quadruple 0000 steel wool? How are the insides of the caps? No cats in there?

Very nice "bling" for your Stallion! :)

great that you could clean them up! my right hubcap on my 520 had rust from the side discharge deck throwing grass on it.
