Wheel Center Caps Cobra R

Somebody has one or more of these wheel center caps ? They come from an original Cobra R-Wheel (94-04) and have the Number C-0374 - they are really rare… Somebody stole mine from the garage.

FYI . . . that center cap is not a Ford part.

The 1995 and 2000 Cobra R caps look like this and are 2.25" for '95, and 2.5" for '00 R's . .

Had these wheels and center caps on my SN95. One went missing, and I could never find a replacement. This was many years ago though. If you do happen to come across some, by extras. You may never see them again.

Here is a set on ebay.com, http://www.ebay.com/itm/Center-Caps-...lWsp8o&vxp=mtr

But I've never seen them on an OEM Ford wheel . . . .of course I could also be mistaken. Been known to happen from time-to-time . . .

Wow!

If these hadn't been the first ones I had seen for sale, in years, I'd say that's too expensive.

Nice find evil.

I have 4 wheels

I just acquired a 1995 Mustang Gt coupe with four of these wheels. If they are not a Ford part, could they be a Shelby part?

This is a photo of one of the wheels that were on my Mustang Gt coupe when I purchased it a few days ago. The wheels are 17”X9” highly polished chrome Topline wheels #1119-679 with the cobra caps. I have never seen them before and I have owned 15 Mustangs since 1973. I emailed the company that supposedly supplied them at one time just to find out the history but have gotten no response. If you were to buy the look a like wheels from American Muscle and the caps from eBay that alone would be 1800
