1960 Buick Le Sabre, Apparently there pretty rare in the hubcap world. i had a gentleman offer me $400 for the set of four.

I found them in Harrys U Pullit on a 85 F150 of all things for 3 bucks each..

What type of tire combo are you going to run? White walls would look great with the hib caps and the stance. Im partial though.

Garbz · Post by **Garbz** » March 4, 2009, 6:43 pm

I need performance tires to use the suspension i installed.

But yea a 235 85 R15 in the back and 205 60 R15 in the front silvertown whites would look killer.

Sean, nope i did not sell them. I kind of like them and they only came on upper level trim 1960 Le sabers so they are correct with the time theme.

They are real close to 55 chevy caps but not quite. The center bullet and three bar with outer turbine is pretty cool for a hubcap. I knew they were either late 50s GM or real early sixties when i found them. I was not planning to use them on this build but they fit the look i am striving for.

Tim The final color will be Mitsubishi Sunset Pearl. The dark copper red on the Ecelipse.

Here is a link to the color. http://www.mitsubishicars.com/MMNA/jsp/ ... ?loc=en-us

Sweet looking with the pipes and wide whites and hubcaps.

Dave, I can't get my program to do the color I want. This is as good as I can get it. Maybe when I have another pic I can get it.
