<VV> Re: <VV>Mag caps

[airvair]

There is a caveat there. I know of at least two styles of 14" mag caps
that GM used. They are distinguished by the ring in the center, among
other things. The ones that match the Corvair cap best have a raised
ring, while the others have a flat ring.

In searching out a set for my road wheels, I ended up with two full sets
of flat ring caps. Any buyers?
