Lincoln SA200 Factory hub caps????

admin

OK here's a new one for ya.  This weekend I bought a barn kept 1968 SA-200 Redface F-162 red seal engine, it also had the factory trailer.  The owner said it was bought used from his employer in 1972 and been on the farm ever since.I already flushed all the fluids and new plugs in it. Just waiting on carburetor to come back from re-builder.  But it also had what appears to be factory hub caps.  I called a few friends, only one ever seen a them before and it was 20 years ago.  Has anyone ever seen these?

Reply:Very cool find. I've never seen them before either.
Reply:Those are BAD AZZ!! I would also suggest keeping a good eye on them! jrw159
Reply:My grandpa had a set of them in his garage, when we had to clean out his garage after he passed away everyone thaught they were for a lincoln car. I kept them for sentimental reasons every time I look at them they put a smile on my face.
Reply:I agree with others, lock them up. I would hate to see one of them bouncing down the side of the road or someone stealing them. Find some cool baby moon reproductions to go on the trailer.
Reply:The plan for this machine is to take to a job we need another welder on for a couple of weeks.  Then bring it back home and do a complete restoration to it.  It will only be used for taking to tractor and steam shows after that.  And maybe on the rare occasion used it again in the field.  The rims will be only put on for shows.  I think I might have them chrome plated.Lincoln 300 Vantage 2008300 Commander 1999SA250 1999SA200 1968Miller Syncrowave 200XMT350MPA/S-52E/xr-15Xtreme 12vs Millermatic 251 w/30A  Millermatic 251 Dialarc 250 Hypertherm 1250 GEKA & Bantom Ironwokers
