I need a quick education on the Hub Centers (mini hubcaps).

The wire spoke wheels used their own hubcaps, while the reverse dish wheels used the their own hub caps. When Ford went to the Budd wheels the went with the screw on hub caps

Gunmetal,

Is that your '29? I see a nice '34 behind it.

Unless the negative was reversed, the green truck appears to be right hand drive. Bradahaw
