ando76 4,354 Posted March 30, 2015 Cheers mate for the prompt reply. wonder what the chances are that Ford has some centre caps in stock. lol. Not holding any great hope. Nice wheels but for sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NZXD 2,328 Posted March 30, 2015 I would of thought they would be common in wrecking yards etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord_fahrquhar 2,580 Posted March 30, 2015 Eb1-ed ghia. Late ed they changed to na ltd if I remember correctly. But the correct answer to the question was :- round. 3 Outback Jack, gerg and 78xcgxl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerg 10,871 Posted March 30, 2015 XPTCrossy had an ED Ghia V8 with those wheels. I reckon they'd scrub up nicely with some gold spokes and polished rims Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted March 30, 2015 ED had different wheels, just EB with those from factory. Series 1 and 2. Also came on NA Sportsman. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wagoon 2,429 Posted March 30, 2015 You may well be pushing shit up hill to get some new centres but wreckers might have them if your lucky. Cant imagine there is a huge number of them still around. Agree though they are a nice wheel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Free.51 2,727 Posted March 30, 2015 I read that these wheels are eb Ghia to ed series 1, but these wheels are ed series 2 1 SPArKy_Dave reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted March 30, 2015 Those were on all ED Ghias. They didn't change. NC wheels changed very late though, not long before NF. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Free.51 2,727 Posted March 30, 2015 Sorry mate I thought the eb2 Ghia got the same wheels as ed Ghia (carry over), thanks for clearing it up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted March 30, 2015 EB1 and 2 had those same mesh ones. EA Fairmont & Ghia had the turboblades same as EB and ED Fairmont. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lord_fahrquhar 2,580 Posted March 30, 2015 Yeah I think (and prob wrong) that the eb ghia ones are bbs wheels. If so the ed ghia ones simply remove that centre cap and make it a one piece design for cheaper manufacture. Beancounters Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SLO247 1,713 Posted March 31, 2015 I forgot about those plastic caps. You're right. They did some weird stuff then. EB1 Fairmont had climate but manual windows. Can't remember if EA was the same or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gerg 10,871 Posted March 31, 2015 ED had different wheels, just EB with those from factory. Series 1 and 2. Also came on NA Sportsman. Yeah sorry you're right, EDs were the ones pictured just above. Yeah I think (and prob wrong) that the eb ghia ones are bbs wheels. If so the ed ghia ones simply remove that centre cap and make it a one piece design for cheaper manufacture. Beancounters Funny how Ford could chop and change so quickly between two very similar wheel designs yet make the snowy for 300 years and slap it on everything. 1 Thom reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ando76 4,354 Posted April 7, 2015 So does anyone know someone with these centre caps lying around? I'm thinking I will paint the centres gold and polish the rim edges and then squirt them with some clear. Reckon that could look good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
