AW,
You use the word 'correct' in your post. There are center caps and trim rings available from many of the vendors. They are in various degrees of "correctness" and a wide range of prices.
Some NCRS types are now having KNOWN originals restored because unless you find NOS parts from the RIGHT ERA that is your only choice for having an exact part.
What is your goal for these caps and rings?
Regards,
Alan

I appreciate your comments. My lack of proper terminology is creating trouble. I just want to buy center caps and rings for my early 68 restoration driver that look original. The car will never be NCRS judged. But as you said the steep prices and number of vendors cause me to pause and ask which vendor would have the closest offerings. With those prices I don't want to make a mistake.

Mid America, Corvette Central, Corvette America - and Zip - all have pictures of their products, and an pretty good explaination of what degree they are correct or not. Look em over and price shop for what you want.
