C bodies in motion thread

Cap for a road wheel center

Need a cap. Do not need the entire center, but I’d take the whole unit if that’s the only option. Driver quality only…chipped, scuffed or cracked is ok (within reason). Can even be missing the steel retaining piece if its really cheap :D
Please PM me with a price shipped to 61360 and if possible, post a picture in this thread.
Thanks!

Am the new owner of a 1972 Monaco wagon, have found a few things that I’m going to need to replace. So far looks like:

3. Window crank handle
4. Black headrests. For some reason the front split bench seat is missing both of them.
That’s about all I can…

Tachometer in the Fuselage era?

Hey guys was there a factory optional dash mounted tach for the 72 Monaco? A small one where my inoperable clock is located would be interesting.
