WOW!! BUICK RIVIERA WHEEL SPINNER CAP ~ 1964 1965 NOS w/box

I was checking out Riviera parts on ebay.
I never seen this style of wheel before on a Riv. o No:

Those are often called "Turbine Wheel Covers"
I had them on my Rivi.
The large outer section is cast aluminim and is bolted to the wheel.
The "spinner" poped off to gain access the lug nuts.
They are semi-rare now.
Probably because so many were damaged by the ignorant people trying to pry them off like a regular wheel cover. :spank:

 

I think i have a set of those in my storage building. Not NOS in the box but a complete set. Tom

 

Let me know! I have 3 mounted on a traditional wheel cover, but I'd be interested in your set if the cast aluminum pieces are still intact

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your information on the Spinner.
I was only 1 year old back then and don't remember ever seeing a Riv
with them on. :grin:

Thanks again!!

 

Jeff, Thanks for the offer but i have no interest in selling them. Tom
