Did the trucks have wheel covers? If so what fits this wheel. No little clips like on the cars.

Looks like a Ford Wheel someone drilled for the pin.
Chrysler and Studebaker also fit.
It did have the Wheels with clips originaly

Tallent R

Yes , had the same 16" wheel as the car, so could have any Hudson hub cap you want, (46-47)

Looks like the sort of thing Paul (out in WV) or Alex (out in Waterford) would have hanging around in an outbuilding somewhere. To save yourself gasoline, though, you may want to come up with a list of all this needed stuff before you head out to rummage around! Looks like the previous owner did a lot of "mix and match"ing of parts!

Open the other atatchment if you can its a dealer info page for the pick up,

Yup, Hudson wheels have..or had, the clips. I'm using a set of 15 in wheels and Hubcaps from a wrecked 37 car I got from a Mr. Davidchuck that Jon B. had met and remembered (Name and address) from 20 years earlier, in Broadalbin, NY. They clearly say 'Hudson' for the great unwashed that doesn't know.

I don't see the dealer info pack for the pick-up? Or is it just the sales brocure you are refering to? :)

Tallent R

Yes , it was part of a booklet , I guess only part came up . Ill see if I can get the rest to post.

I dont know why that would be Lee, They work when I do it with my computor. I guess the settings must be different someplace. I can email them to you if you like or I can print them and mail you a copy ,

Thank you for the offer.

I had some wheels where the clips were broken on my 41 pickup. Since the wheels are the same as Chrysler cars of the same era, I checked Andy Bernbaum and they sell the clips that you can use to replace the old ones. You do need someone that knows how to do the rivets, but otherwise pretty easy. The wheels are exactly the same as for the cars.

Lee ODell

Sorry I didn't add address Roger. My roster address is correct.

I've replaced some with screws and nuts. Heavy duty pop rivets will also work.

Tallent R

OK , I'll send out a copy.

On my car, I took the clips off a wheel that was laying around and spot welded them in place. Works great.

It's hard to imagine a leather stretch type wheel cover that does not have a
synthetic fiber backing. Without a very tough backer strip, the leather would
never survive the force required to stretch it over the wheel.

Tallent R

Leather ? ...............
