[jmxkf1]

'53 Kaiser Manhattan.   Does anyone have a wheelcover?   I just lost one.  thanks,  Jim

Don't know if these are the ones you need, but  there is as set of Kaiser wheel covers on ebay.
item - 110576438117

The covers fit later 1952 (Manhattan/deLuxe with tail light and front end looking like yours) through 1955 model years.  Should not be hard to find a single.

or how about this one in the the Studebaker listings?   250686187904
I LOVE the description!!!
1947-54 15 In Kaiser Hubcaps Very Rare Look Nice (2)  fits STUDEBAKER

I'm sure it would. Hahahaha!

Check out that auction and the first one mentioned, 110576438117  to see which type you want, the plain 51? 52? with the embossed K or the later? painted black K type. My 53 had the black K full wheel type, and my 49 Special has the hubcap (no beauty rings) of yet another style.

A propos of the first auction, I love the "not quite accurate" description as well....even wilder than a lot of the Studebaker stuff.

Hahahahaha!

NONE OF THE E BAY CAPS YOU REFER TO ARE CORRECT FOR A 1953 KAISER!  Check a photo of a 1953 and compare it with the ebay items...one is a 1949-50 model year cap the other is a 1951-1952 Kaiser Virginian type.  They would have been as used on the base-line models those years.

I'm surprised, because the auction that I and Mike Fleming referenced appeared to me, anyway, to be correct for 1953. That appears to be what was on my 53 Manhattan, and I always thought they were correct. Full disk, with the black K. The embossed but not painted ones I have seen on 51K (and therefore, 52 Virginians, but I haven't seen one in the flesh) The painted different style K caps, not wheel disks, I am familiar with too, on my 49.

NEWS!!! it is on Ebay with a cheaper "Buy it now"

To be precise, the first auction ended for 2 hubcaps starting bid $20 or buy it now of $35. The subsequent auction is for one hubcap for $20 buy it now. That is a correct 53 hubcap as Fid says

The one with the link listed here is right...the 1947 48 49 50 51 51? dated auction items are the ones I was referring to and by the way previous post was written, I thought you were referring to those also.

I also e-mailed Jim and he went and did the "Buy it now."  He was tickled to death.  Then the second auction with only one wheel cover showed up.  Pics look the same to me.  I hope Jim gets 2 decent ones.  The price seemed right.
