IMW Posted August 15, 2010 Share Posted August 15, 2010 I have the standard Ghia wheels and hubcaps. The hub-cap emblem is a round blue plastic disc with Ford "written" on it. I had taken the hub caps off to clean them and I guess I used too hot a solution of washing up liquid and water. Anyway, the emblem came off one of the hub-caps and I stuck it back on with a spray-on contact adhesive. But it didn't stay stuck and disappeared somewhere many miles ago .... I've seen similar emblems on eBay but they're too small - I need one of 3 inches in diammeter. If anyone knows where I can get a replacement emblem from I'd much appreciate it.

Ian Just measure the exact diameter of the missing piece and they'll match it. http://www.dmb.uk.com/Product/Ford-Wheel-Centre-GEL-Overlays-x4/461 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it's off to the Ford parts desk (after a quick check of the scrappies). Thanks for the link though - it looks a useful site.

mintalkin Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 any one of these? http://www.fordpartsuk.com/shop/search.php?start=10&cat=483 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first item shown looks like my hub caps, the difference being that mine seem shinier even though they are only crap chromed plastic. The round blue emblem shown later in the list is what I'm after but I need a bigger size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMW Posted September 7, 2010 Author Share Posted September 7, 2010 have you looked on e-bay. Yes. As I said in my original post the examples I found were too small. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
