    These 38 Lincoln Zephyr caps were made by Lyon...probably what the single bar flipper caps were based on.

  7. The ones Rainier is running are the ones I want to run on my car, too bad the 2 I have need so much work. I have of the other kind, flatter center, they don't get me as excited.

    If anyone has a set of 16" Lyon's for sale shoot me a PM. I don't know why I sold mine awhile back.
     
  9. If I could find a nearly mint set like Rainier runs, I'd love to get them re-polished and run them on my Mercury. Until I'll keep running the spider caps. :)

    They are super nice, as the seller posted, one has some very small dings in it, goes on the back, another has one very small ding, can't hardly see it the other two are flawless! Can't wait to get them on the car. doing the centers in white same as interior, plus WW bias ply tires!

    This is a good thread . Ive known of Lyon hubcaps befor but never owned a set till now. I scored these at the Pomona swapmeet this past weekend. They do not fit a reg 15 inch chevy rim cause the caps hit the valve stem . Does anyone have an idea of what rims these were for?
