Hubcap Question

Josh

We're nearing the end of a very long and deep restoration. In our shed full of parts that were accumulated over that last 35 years or so, we have 4 hubcaps with depression of about 1 3/4" in the center and 6 caps with the a depression in the center of about 1 1/4". All are pretty bad, but will need to do until the coffers are refilled. Which ones are the correct ones for a 1962 Series II? (VIN 911XXX LRXB).

Thanks!

Got pics? The earlier ones are more dome shaped and I don't think the later series ones will fit an earlier series Alpine, someone please correct me here.

Dan, I think you mean the one on the left. The S2 I have here came with the ones you show on
the left. I've seen the ones on the right on later cars.

Thanks! Happily, the one on the left is one of six and at least four should polish up nicely.
