jdcar32 Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 Looking for original style hubcaps for the AMT 1963 Corvette coupe. I prefer the hubcap to the turbine cast wheels in the kit. I believe the old original issues had the hubcaps but those are pretty rare ( $$$ ) . Maybe there are resin copies out there or another source I'm not aware of. I've tried the usual net search with no luck. I'd like to do a shelf model Split Window IF I can find the hubcaps ! Any leads would be appreciated. 1
Exotics_Builder Posted July 5, 2023 Posted July 5, 2023 I can go down and double check, but they should be in the Prestige Kit version of the 1963 Vette.
Shark Posted July 6, 2023 Posted July 6, 2023 Also, I believe the Revell snap kits of the stock version 63 have them. If you are building a shelf model, I would just build the entire snap kit. The body just looks a lot more accurate. 1

Plentiful too, I got mine at model shows for $5 each.
