“Cotton” Owens — with help from family, friends and a team of highly qualified craftsmen from the Spartanburg, S.C., racing community — built this 1964 Dodge Polara to replicate his original Polara race car.

But until you see a close up, you won't get a kick out of the headlight covers, maybe the coolest ones I've seen 

I think you'll agree, bitchin' spare parts use!

factory hubcaps that were made to get your car looking a lot cooler, for a lot less money, than the real rims.

I am a goofball about rediscovering the cool and interesting "muscle car" fake rim hubcaps, but I haven't made a post that compiled the ones I've discovered until now, so, get a kick out of these!

Jeepster Commando hubcap that was a factory option (thank you Steve!)

Hubcap trivia, it's time to look at the Challenger, as I already posted about the Camaro. W11 option for 1970 Challenger Deputy

if you're wondering "what the hell is a Challenger Deputy?" then you ought to spend more time looking at my archives, or the "trivia" tag. 

I posted this, and more info, in 2015 https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2015/04/1971-challenger.html and 2018 https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2018/10/ever-hear-of-challenger-highline-or.html

nice, and those hubcaps are cool

I'm not sure what's going on with the headlight, looks like something unusual

Ok, I'll ask, as I'm brave like that, to show I seriously have so darn much to learn every day - and here's another new one to me... why the spinners on the poverty caps?

check out these hubcaps!

Steve, who not only is the most amazing researcher, but also is a Jeep fan, knows stuff... and knew that these rims are optional on the 1967-1968 Jeepster Cammando convertible.

Finally, the car cover has slipped up enough to see it's a Chevy hub cap, so, that must be a 67-68 Camaro? Also, notice the license plate number UZC974, here in California the plates were sequential, and I'll guess U fell in around 1967

which looks like the N96, but with a fast and lousy silver spray over the whole thing instead of making the right coves blacked out
