Good looking stuff and I hear it's as good as it looks.

I guess that means I should throw my 8 surviving OEM caps in the garbage.

Those blank caps are what I've been looking for, for a long time now.

I have spoke hubcaps on my 2+2 with those blank caps and one is pretty beat up, so I've been looking for a replacement. It would also be nice to have a spare around. I might order a couple from Dale.

Thanks for posting

Scott (LandShark ...)

Nice to see some one reproducing beaumont stuff.  I see two future purchases for my 69. The custom emblems and the ralley caps. Good to know there available.

I purchased quarter panel "Sport Deluxe" & front fender V8 badges for my '67SD. Couldn't be any more happier...they're excellent quality!

Hi guys, I just ordered another set of the disc brake caps and a pair of Custom emblems.
I am really happy with the quality of the caps (hence the second order) and this is the first time ordering the emblems. I will let you know about the quality of them once I get them.
Cheers, Whitey

Those parts look very very nice. You can pick up the centre caps for $25 or less at swaps if you look hard, I have some that I paid $20 for so I suppose paying 150% more for a really nice cap is a good value. Dales sales volume can't be too high on these products so he is to be commend for undertaking the expensive licensing and manufacturing process. Of course these items facilitate the creation and restoration of a lot more Sport Deluxe cars which is an awesome thing.

You're absolutely correct. 

(Now I also understand your desire to do the right thing and throw away those caps you have to further reduce the supply, resulting in an increased demand for Dale's products.   I just have one question.  What is your address and what day is garbage pickup? LOL)

I tried to get him to part with them for cash and he is still sleeping on it not likely he ll accidently drop them in the garbage and then imagine the air flight cost to get out here on garbage day. Just support dale

I just thought I'd chime in with some comedy (as I believe was Ray's intent with his initial comment.)
I've heard good things about those cap's that Dale's has. (And I certainly wasn't trying to scoop you with the caps from Ray, as I suspect your offer of money would be more attactive to him than myself rummaging through his garbage. LOL.)

I think the supply is gone at the General's parts counter, well at least discontinued. The ones I got are in recent General Motors boxes but they are from Year One, I think they bought up everything they could when things got bad .

And here's 4 of the centres I have, original OEM.
