Hi Jeff...your car is lookin good. Back in the day the front hubs were
"covered" with red rubber balls which were just jammed in. I've been
looking for those simple balls for some time and no luck so far. Back in
the 60s they were ten cents at the local 5 and 10 cent store. Now even
Toys are Us, which is just crammed with junk doesn't even carry a simple
red rubber ball! What's the world coming to?

You are correct the wife is happy. Was happy I had it in storage to use!
Cannot use rubber balls as the hub center comes to the end.
Guess if you cut a ball in half and hollowed out maybe. These caps < 10 bucks......

Now just a hard top and you have the perfect Dragon Snake replica. And yes I don't even have a Cobra!
