Correctly identifying 1932-1935 Ford Hubcaps

[mercman from oz]

To help identify 1932-1935 Ford Hubcaps correctly, please refer to this photo.
Top left is 1932 Ford V8 - Top right is 1933 Ford V8.
The non V8 in the centre is correct for 1932 and 1933 Four Cylinder models
Bottom left is for the 1934 Ford Four Cylinder models.
Centre bottom is 1934 Ford V8 with the 1935 Ford V8 on the right.
Note, the blue paint is missing on some hubcaps.
I hope that this helps.

Continuing on the subject of 1932-1935 Ford Hubcaps, these are the Locking Hubcaps for 1932-1935 Fords.
Top left is 1932 Ford V8. Top right is 1933 Ford V8.
In between is the Locking Hubcap correct for 1932 and 1933 Four Cylinder Fords.
Bottom row left is 1934 Ford and bottom right is 1935 Fords.
While these two Locking Hubcaps look similar, the difference is in the recessed area behind the moving Ford Cover Plate.
The recess on the 1934 Locking Hubcap is wider at each end than on the top and bottom, while the recess is a consistent width the whole circumference on the 1935 Locking Hubcap.
Please note that the blue paint is missing on some of these Locking Hubcaps.
