i kinda liked that goose wreath - but imagine they wouldn't last long drivin down the road. your dog dish looks alot like mine. mine doesn't look like it was cromed or stainless. perhaps the paint wore off.

The dog dish ones you have are correct...they either came painted gray/silver with black imprint or stainless steel w/ black imprint...Not sure which trucks got which...Full wheel covers were also available,at a small extra cost,I'm sure....

Wow, original goose wreath wheel covers! How do you find these rarities mike? I've been told there was a spinner version.

I believe the goose wreaths were exclusive to the rare and elusive Alberta Special :lol:

Keith, FWIW someone told me that those wheels date back as far as 1949. That's not confirmed, but just what someone once told me. Kinda hard to believe, but on the other hand I have nothing to say anything different. Did Ford use split rims ever? If so, anyone know when or got pics of one?
That's MR. Jackass to you fellah!
