Hi A good idea is to put your phone number on the inside of the hubcap, so if somebody finds it,they have a possibility to find the owner of a lost hubcap. Allan From: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Noel Hastalis cpaviper@xxxxxxxxxxx [Chrysler300] Good Morning Pete, I remember following Don Nissen in his beautiful K convertible, back at our St Louis Meet a number of years ago. As he turned a corner, he threw a hubcap. Don said this had happened to him before. This was at low speed, so no hubcap damage. I recall the discussion back then was that Chrysler had cheapened the ‘64 hubcaps - lighter weight metal? fewer ‘teeth’? - and this was a fairly common problem that year. Carefully opening the ‘teeth’, as Dan mentions, should hopefully help. With my long distance driving, I also add black paint every year to my F’s wheels where the teeth grab. Over the years, I’ve only lost one hubcap - to a monster pothole on southbound I-65, south of Indy on the way to our Lynchburg Meet. Noel Sent from my iPhone
