HI 1936 that cap looks like a chrome repro., original 36 cap only the section with the V8 on it was stainless steel and the other was body color you can probably find one like you have from one of the V8 parts suppliers, there is a 1936 FORD BOOK available with the right information, so you only buy the correct part for your car, good luck hope this helps 1937 Ragtopman in the V8 TIMES there are vendors selling FORD keys and locks This message was edited by 37RAGTOPMAN on 1-21-21 @ 4:10 PM

Ojaijim.. are you in and/or from Ojai CA ? I have to agree with the previous comment that the the cap you have is an aftermarket chrome cap in lieu of being a stainless steel cap. Don't understand the question about the spare key... The only spare tire key for a '36 Ford is for the tire cover lock. There is no such thing as a 'one size fits all'. Wm. Bill 36 5 win delx cpe

The chrome hubcap might be a reproduction, but Ford offered a chrome hubcap as well as a chrome wheel, besides the all stainless steel spider hubcap as accessories.

There was an evolution in accessory hubcaps during the 1936 model year. The hubcap shown is a genuine Ford part and has part number 68-1130-B and was offered mid-year. Some of the show cars at the time of the model year introduction had chrome wheels and chrome hubcaps, which were subsequently released for sale to the public. General letter #900 dated November 7, 1935 from the St. Paul Branch said "We can supply chrome wheels for 1936 cars under part number 68-1015-B and chrome hub caps under part number 68-1130-B." General Letter #900 Supplement #107 dated December 6, 1935 said "We are releasing a new Chrome Wheel, part 68-1015-C, which has only the spokes chrome plated. This wheel with the chrome plated hub cap, 68-1130-B, and the chrome wheel bands, 48-18303, gives practically the same appearance as the completely chrome plated wheel." The July, 1936 Chassis Parts Book has these entries: 68-1015-C Wheel - with chrome plated spokes 68-1130-B Cap -rustless steel 68-1130-C Cap and spoke assembly - rustless steel It is not yet known when the 68-1130-B hub cap was changed from chrome to stainless steel. 68-1130-C is the more familiar spider hubcap. I have one set of 68-1015-C wheels (the only set that I have ever seen), one 68-1130-B chrome hubcap, and two sets of 68-1130-B stainless steel hubcaps.

The hub cap in the photo actually looks like stainless steel to me. It appears to have the same sheen to it to match the trim ring. This message was edited by trjford8 on 1-23-21 @ 7:17 AM
