Shel, am I correct that this model shows the car with small hubcaps rather than the correct (for a top-of-the-line Star Chief) full wheel covers?

Brian yes they have poverty hub caps looking for original looking wheel covers for months but no luck yet.

Wheel cover suggestions. You might look for a 1955 Road Champs Pontiac Safari and rob the wheels and wire wheel covers from that. I think these were used on both the 1955 and 1956 cars. Or, would the Brooklin 1956 full covers work? Or finally, use the method I used on a 1967 Impala of a photo printed cover from an internet image such as this.
