Below are photos of the 2 types (the one on the right is the odd-one-out)[frame]
Which type should it be? The side view of the car that has the mismatched caps is shown below[frame]
Regards, George.
Thanks for the info, Tommy, and I have just checked with a seller on eBay (selling 2 that looked like that) and his caps are 9" and I need 8.5"horologiumwatches wrote:Hi George
The ones going rust on the left are correct. The other is an odd one out found just to stick on 'temporarily' after the fourth one of the set ejected over a hedge. I stopped but never found it.

Do you happen to know the approx build dates for painted hub caps on 1951 MM's? Mine is high headlight, in last few with a short bonnet, built 25/26 July 1951.
