Hello, I'm a new guy to the site. I have a 68 350 HO . according to the PHS doc's it only came with AM radio, 4-speed, and a tire upgrade aside from the HO package. what type of wheel cover / hubcap would this have had? did they use any poverty caps or were they all full wheel cover. thanks

a hubcap that has a PMD center PART NUMBER 9791006

It has a red center with black PMD letters

There is also a wire cover that was an option. Why dont you just use RAlly II wheels?


1969 Firebird 350 Coupe, Rust free Texas body, formerly brown, now a TA clone with quality spoiler, latching hood and TA wheel; 1969 GTO Convertible Expresso Brown/Parchment(currently painted red). Both numbers matching. My first love was a Cameo White 67 326 Coupe, bought back in 1983, at the age of 17, for $1,200. Been hooked since on PONTIAC! Working on a 67 400 ragtop for customization-Gulf Turquoise/Parchment/400/4 spd! My winter project!

thanks for the info. I've got rally 2's on it right now, but I thought if it came with poverty caps it might look sweet in a low buck horsepower only options kind of way.

This is what the '68 wheel cover looks like: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1968-PONT...sspagenameZWDVW

Also an artists rendering of it is at Vikki's site: http://thefirstgensite.com/library/68brochure/68brochure1.html

Poverty caps were not an option, wire covers were though.

That's not what the original wheel covers that came on my 68 look like.... There must have been two styles.
