I’m sad to see this Caprice wagon here. I’m tempted to go back and grab the 9C1 wheels center-caps, it had all four. I should not be spending that $100 right now though. Although I bet I could turn a profit on them ...

The only vehicle that might have had the part I needed, but somebody beat me to it. It’s a shame the left front door was all dented up, because it’s the same color as my truck, and not all rusty at the bottom like mine is.
