Re: Hubcaps for a 1940 One Ten

Hi Victor,

I have a couple of Packard 110 hubcaps that I took off a pre-war (I think it was a 40 or 41) coupe when I was 10. No, I didn't steal them, the car was behind a Shell station in Albany that belonged to a family friend. If I remember right, the car had a blown engine or some such and was headed to a salvage yard. As I remember I thought even then it was a waste because the car was really in pretty good shape. It was the first 6 cylinder Packard I had ever seen.
Back to the hubcaps: they still have the original factory paint and around the hexagon are the words "Packard 110" two times. One is really very very nice, the other could use some touch-up on the paint. Chrome is very good on the better of the two, and driver quality on the other. It maybe that it just needs polishing but I've never tried.
Let me know if you are interested as they aren't doing me any good. I can take a picture and send it to you.
