Hubcaps For 1990 Mark VII

Hey all,

I'm looking for full wheel hubcaps to cover the non-factory "El Cheapo" Wal-Mart Special black steel winter rims on my Mark VII. I don't want the crappy plastic Wal-Mart brand hubcaps though. I'm looking for chrome or polished aluminum hubcaps that came with any 70's or 80s vintage car from the factory. I don't care if they came from a Caddy DeVille, Chev Caprice, Ford LTD, or even a Dodge Diplomat.

It'd be awesome to find some with Lincoln emblems on it, but really anything will do. However, Grand Marquis and Crown Vic locking wire wheel caps will not fit these rims, The wheel offset is not the same.

Here are some pics for some comparison.

Close up of my rims,




I tried some different hubcaps from my friends collection to see if they fit, and how the looked:

Bare Rims, Ugh!


Ford Thunderbird caps on the back, Chrysler caps on the front.


Generic caps from a travel trailer


Chevy Caprice caps


Chevy Impala caps


The Chevy Caprice/Impala caps were the only ones that didn't fit because of the design of the rim. but my friend doesn't want to part with his collection, so I gotta keep looking...

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
