I remember seeing those caps and painted wheels coming out of the plant by the hundreds. I don't care where you're from, Fenton Missouri had one on every corner. Why, because most of us hillbillies just worked there and could just afford the drivetrain and nothing more. It's impossible to know the exact number of just capped cars that were built, but it was truly a bunch. Alloy wheels became more affordable over time and became standard equipment, even on lower trim levels. The more we talk about them, the more I like them. I'll always remember a bunch of go, with little show cars around the town that helped build a few legends.

Similar deal with the locals in my town. The college kids tended to run Keystones, Torque Thrusts, or factory road wheels. The presence or lack of a Penn State parking sticker corresponded well with the wheel choice. Although there were a lot of steel wheels running around, they almost never had caps if mounted on a Road Runner or GTX. The Chargers and Super Bees were more likely to have caps in place, seemed the Dodge crowd was a bit more upscale than the Plymouth guys.
