Againstmywill Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I took the15" coil off the Equinox today to try some relic hunting in a very trashy area. The 11" seems so small! I found this along an old railroad located in a city environment now. In front of the red coloring is glass. My thought is off the center of a wheel. Any ideas? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KS Stick Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Looks like a center to a hub cap from the 60's or 70's Stick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2Valen Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Question. Is that wheel bearing grease on the edges and inside of the piece? If it is I would say that it came off a wheel of a trailer used on the railroad. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1515Art Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 These are replicas for a Mercury I think, could be this with the center emblem missing? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These look to be flat. The one I found has concave glass. Looks close though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for thinking that it might be grease, so please look up a 1953 Chrysler type car, and you should have what you are looking for. Since my neck and shoulder has been hurting my eyes have given me fits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Againstmywill Posted April 21, 2020 Author Share Posted April 21, 2020 Thanks everyone for your help! No exact matches yet, but at least I now know it is a center cap for sure and it is from the 50's. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
