Hi, 1991 Silverado owner here - need a little help

[GMSteve455]

Hi. I've had Chevy trucks since the late 1990's and have had my current 1991 Silverado since 2006. It's in original condition with the 350 and the stock Aluminum wheels which I recently had stripped and re-clear coated. Somewhere along the way I lost one of the lug caps for the wheels. I'd really like to find an original one and not aftermarket. This is the black lug cover without the ridge around it for holding a center cap on. There is a small center cap on these wheels that do not cover the lug nuts - they are recessed into the wheel and the lug caps are exposed. The original ones I have say "remove" on them with arrows.

Might someone have one they could sell me? Any chance someone has some NOS ones to sell? I haven't found any on Ebay or elsewhere.

Thank you.


Steve

it is getting harder every day to find 90s and older cars/trucks in junk yards these days reguardless of where you are at it seems to me every time some older car/truck hits the yard it is picked out in a few days I blame cash for clunkers it was bad for the used car market and used parts market

Aint that the truth. We have a local junkyard to were if you saw something you think you need you have to get it then. Because if not that truck will be down to the frame the next time you go. Thats like evey 2 days. But they specifically buy obs trucks so they have a bit of them.

Did you find them man.

 

[GMSteve455]

Hi. I have not found them. I haven't ventured out to any local bone yards yet but last time I was there was pretty slim picking. Here are pictures of the wheel and a close up of the lug cap. I'm also looking for center caps that I can polish and clear coat. Mine have pits in them so I'm considering making some on my lathe if I can't find any out in the wild.

I can check LMC truck as well.


Thanks for the help.
