    Simulated wire wheel covers

    I like the red, white and blue trim and the “FUTURA” name on the standard wheel covers that I have had on my Falcon for the last couple of years.

    But, ... I saw a nice set of the optional simulated wire wheel covers on e-bay and thought that they would give it more of a “sports car” appearance.

    The new wheel covers give my Falcon that Jaguar XKE look.

    The Ford advertisement for the wire wheel covers was a bit .... odd. What were they thinking? Maybe it was part of the build up for the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo.

    Here is the e-bay photo of the set of wheel covers that I bought. They are real works of art. The car manufacturers didn't make plastic wheel covers back then.
