Beauty is in the eye of the beholder but I would want good to very good. I do not propose to show the car but it has had a repaint and the exterior is between a #2 and #3 and i want caps to match.

There are only two other Cracker Barrel stores in Louisville that I have visited in the past one is close to Autobon Park and the other is on the East side of town. I have been looking at 37 caps on internet pictures and the club books and the caps I saw in Louisville may be 38 or 39 standards. They did not have a painted area around the V8. They were bright metal except black area around the center. My daughter lives in Fern Creek and my time here is too short to visit the two more distant stores. Good luck in your search.

At the time, being a 'rookie' I purchase lots of nice hubcaps....but they were all 1937 caps. Seems, I realized I had too many 1937 caps and went and bought a '37 to go with the caps. Well, the '37 has been gone for 15 years now. (remember -- innies and outties) Please explain what condition of 1937 caps you are looking for -- better than crummy, fair, good, very good, or restored to show quality. There maybe some good ones still out there that are above your crummy status. You could always upgrade and use 1938 caps. There are two different styles for that year.

I have a daughter living in the Louisville area. If you would tell me if they are still there and give me the Cracker Barrel locations I will have her negotiate for them. Norris 37 Coupe 06-24-2012 @ 6:20 AM reply profile send p.m. Member Posts: 363 Joined: Oct 2009 There is an ad on Fordbarn right now on the early v8 swap site for 1937 hubcaps. Where I would look for them is on Ebay, I have seen nice ones on there,you have to search everyday 1937 Ford or some people list them under "37 Ford" and check out daily "Flathead Ford" for listings that the seller knows it is Ford but not sure of the year. 40fordor 06-24-2012 @ 4:31 AM reply profile send p.m. New Member Posts: 116 Joined: Oct 2009 Oldad, I don't know if you can buy anything from the Cracker Barrel chain but there are very good original 37 hubcaps hanging in the rafters of a Louisville store. In fact two stores in that area have enough for a full set. They have very small holes drilled close to the edges to hang them by wires. I am going to Louisville this weekend ,6/24/12,and will see if they are still there. Don
