Title: Allstate Hubcaps
Post by: Corsairdeluxe on December 24, 2017, 05:07:42 PM
I do not remember who or when but someone told me the rear hubcaps for the three wheeled Harley traffic cop bike fit the HJ. If so they could be a godsend for the ALLSTATE folks.

See the attached photo for a look at the hubcaps used on Allstates.  They are just like the Henry J caps and wheel discs, but have no identification mark (like the stylized "K") in the center and no name on them.

The attached photo illustrates an Allstate wheel cover rather than a hubcap.  The Allstate hubcap is designed like the 1951 Henry J hubcap with a circle design in the center but with no emblem in the center although if these do fit a Henry J or Allstate wheel they would certainly offer an option for the hard to find Allstate hubcaps.  Has anyone tried  them to verify the fit?  They look like the design of the later 1947-8 K-F hubcaps.  That is also a hub cap that is very hard to find in excellent condition.  My low mileage one owner Allstate was missing its emblems and hubcaps so I ended up buying another complete car just to get the parts I needed.

A bit of a late reply but here's the Allstate full cover and small hubcap. Next to impossible to find.

Thanks for the great illustrations.  They do not get any better than that!  Does anyone know if the Harley Davidson caps will interchange with the Henry J or Allstate caps?

Apparently the pix were taken at the national in Chicago because I can see the reflection of the 53 Allstate I took in the wheel cover!

I have a friend who owns several H-Ds...I'm going to check with him to see if he might have a Servi-car cap. Stay tuned.

Yes, I took those pictures at Hoffman Estates in '07.  You can see my reflection in the caps themselves! I tried to get as many Allstate pics as I could.  Things like this as well...

We'll probably never see that many Allstates's at one time again.  Was it eleven?  That meet coincided with a Sears Roebuck anniversary at the same time in Chicago.

Looks like there was 6 Allstate's and 11 Henry J's at that meet.   It was epic with a great boat tour and fireworks in Chicago later that night.
