Hi trsulliv,
I have been chasing new hubs for my 73 for some time with no luck, so I will be interested in any response too. One thing that might be worth following up, I heard our hubs may be the same as GM used on the earlier Impala, not hard to believe that they would be a general parts bin item used across the line.

Cheers
Tony

Hi Tony,
Looks like there is a market opportunity out there for someone to make some, can't be that hard. I'm on leave next week - I'll try to find out some costing on them.

Regards from Down Under
