I am restoring my 76 Bronco and had been looking for hubcaps like ICON uses on a lot of his builds. I really liked that look with the half moon caps and Wimbledon white rims. I spoke with Jonathon from ICON a long time ago and asked him if I could buy caps like that from him or where he purchased them. He wouldn't give me any info on them at all, although he seemed like a decent guy. The other day someone posted a pic of there beautiful Bronco build and it had the same hubcaps as the ICONS. I asked about them and was told of several places to get them. You just have to cut the centers out for the front hubs. I got them yesterday from Summit and they are actually 49 50 ford caps. They are stainless steel. Today I cut the centers out on my lathe and will eventually polish them on the buffer although they have a good shine on them already. If anyone else is interested I have the part numbers and will describe my method of cutting out the centers. Thanks Paul

These are from Summit and their part number for the front caps without the ford stamped on them is UPD-A6030P and the rears with the Ford stamped is UPD-A6030D. I bored the holes out to 3.60" which gives a 1/8 reveal with the locking hubs. They are the same hubcap except for the FORD stamped for the rears. Very good quality and 100% stainless steel. The cost with shipping for all 4 was $250.00 which I gladly paid since that is the look I wanted. Unlike chrome, these won't rust and if they lose their shine I will just buff them out with some stainless compound on the buffer. Are you going to use a lathe to cut the holes? That is what I did and it looks factory. You won't get as quality of cut using a hole saw. Need anything else let me know.
