Gen 2 Wheel - What Do They Look Like?

[HH.]

Okay, round and metalic.

Bought a set of 80/81 GT wheels to go on my 78 ST RA40; they were a little rough, (cough), but have been striped, blasted coated and laquered.

My question relates to the centre caps that came with the set, they have been given a polish, but realy need bead blasting, polishing and a replate - they are nickel or chrome on ally.

as they've been cleaned its become obvious that the centre piece of the cap-had dark blue paint on it with the logo raised in chrome. - is this an original feature, if so would it have been a body matching colour or just a "set colour" for all.

(justing trying to keep 90% ish originality)

cheers

All the caps I have seen for these wheels have a had a red laquer finish in the centre, which seems to have worn quite quickly, leaving just plain alloy. if yours are blue, then chances are they're not original.

like a prat I failed to notice the steel wheels on the st still had thier caps - with red centre's

doh!

Thats just coincidence! The 1600 ST 13" wheels had black centres, whilst the 14" wheels had red ones....
