Centercap questions

[340 Dart]

A couple of wheel questions I hope someone can help me with:

I have a set of universal keystones that I will be selling soon that have crager center caps on them are these correct?

I also have a set of aluminum slots with no caps I will be putting on my duster. I have never seen center caps for these, but are there supposed to be some?

Keystone wheels never has Cragar caps, but if they fit....are you sure they are Keystone rims? Cragar made a rim that looked just like the Keystone.

Slotted mags, should have a center cap. Some were the push through style and some screwed on.

Thanks for your reply 66340Sedan.

No, I am not sure they are real keystones. They look just like them, but have crager ss centercaps. I wouldn't know how to tell the difference.

What kind of caps did they use on the aluminum slots? The chrome "bullet" style push through? I can get those at Pep boys but wouldn't that look funny on those rims?

The folks that own the rights to the Crager name also own the rights to the Keystone name. The Keystone classic is typically refered to in catalogs these days as a Cragar Keystone Classic.

On the slotted wheels I had a set of chrome steel slotted wheels in the small bolt circle that pushed through from the back. The local speed shop had a generic catalog of of wheel accessories including center caps. I was able to get a set for about $3 each of ones that fit. They didn't have a logo but at least I had center caps. If your wheels have the type that are held on with screws on the outside of the wheel they are all kinds available from generic ones to fancy billet ones.

The Keystone was a cheaper version of a Cragar SS wheel back in the day and they had a Keystone labeled center cap on them. My buddy bought a set for his Nova at the same speed shop the same day I bought my Cragar SS. He couldn't afford the Cragars but liked the look and went with the Keystones instead because they were cheaper in price.

Thanks for the info guys. I will take a closer look at the slots later today and see what may still be available.
