The '66 Judging Manual I have (probably not the latest) calls out the paint on the hubcap as Charcoal - I think that the color mine have would be closer to "Flat Black". Comments?

Re: '66 Hubcap paint
Loren, for my '66 wheel covers I got the Long Island Corvette 65-66 Hubcap Dark Gray spray paint (#45-25). I took each wheel cover apart (replaced the plastic inserts), washed them thoroughly with soapy water to get all dirt and grease off. Spent at least an hour on each one masking off everything except area to be painted. Sprayed a few light coats of self etching primer, then several light coats of color, letting each coat dry for several minutes before the next coat. I did my wheels more than 4 years ago, I've driven over 7k miles and the wheel covers still look great.
