    How close are these to being correct for 68 Shelby's? I've read that they are not being reproduced but may have found a provider.

    I'll try them out and let you guys know. Hopefully the shine is from how the photo's were taken.

    In the past the repro makers used the wrong thread size for the correct 67-70 bolt in the bolt inserts of the caps so be watchfull.Bob

    You were correct about the shine, it was not due to lighting.
