Reproduction small centre caps for rally wheels


Most of you may have seen these but I'm posting this on the chance some guys don't know about these. 

If you want the small caps like were available on 67 Acadian, 67-68 Beaumont or 67-70 full size Canadian Pontiac, and if you are unable to find them or don't want to pay the price these usually sell for and if you are willing to settle for "similar" caps, there is a solution. I had a set of these years ago and never used them so I sold them. However now I have a set of rally wheels again and I really like the little caps, so I took a chance that they are still a good quality and ordered a set from Amazon. They arrived today and when I tried one on an original GM rally wheel it seems to fit perfectly. The small ornament has 4 screws holding it on, just like the originals. The ornament is heavy so it's not plastic but it isn't magnetic. As some suggested who I mentioned this to, maybe they are pot metal. Current price for a set of 4 is $154.28 Canadian includes free shipping. 

Anywhere, here's a picture and here's a link-

 I assume you are thinking that's a good price? It's hard to tell tone/intent with internet sometimes!

Really that is not a bad price, I have a set on my 67 Beaumont very similar, only mine have the Disc Brake Lettering , oh well , it is what it is.  Nice finish though.

 Yes, as stated in my initial post, "and if you are willing to settle for "similar" caps"

 $38.50 each is high for a centre cap? Wow, I thought these were a good deal!

Thanks for the heads up. Might need a set eventually to go along with some 15x8 Rally's.

 Yes, he had the Canadian Pontiac repro ornaments reproduced and was selling them. Someone told me he is sold out of them and is not doing any more though. I would have said the ornaments only were around $125/set of 4 maybe?
