RPO N96 Wheel Covers
« on: December 06, 2010, 09:02:56 PM »
Does anyone have a picture of a 68 Camaro with the N96 wheel covers?
Classic Industries appears to have these available under the GM part number 3903086.  I was wondering if these are the same wheel covers that came on the Camaro if N96 was ordered.
I'm trying to decide what wheels to run on my car.  My car came with the P01 covers, which I don't care for (although I have a NOS set to use).  I was going to run painted wheels with NOS dog dish covers, but I really like the look of the N96 wheel covers.
Thanks.

The 68 P&A shows a b/w drawing of 3903086 as an optional wheel cover. If you'd like a copy of that, I can scan it for you.

^^Sure, if you get a chance.
I was hoping that someone would have a picture of a 67 or 68 with the N96 covers installed.  I would like to see what they look like on a Camaro.

No need to scan it in. I did a few years ago. (bottom left on THIS PAGE)

And here are a few pictures of them installed on the car...

Thanks!  I really like the way they look, and I think they would look great with a set of white pinstripe tires.
I found a NOS set, but they are very expensive.  Are these covers that rare?

Only 6072 from the factory in 68, but as I remember mag-style wheel covers were very popular over the counter back in the day.  That's a real 60's look.
