Dog Dish Hub Caps / Poverty Caps
I picked up 5 over the weekend. Four we’re marked Ponitiac, Pontiac and one Pontiac Motor Division . I have Seen this difference before but was curious as to different year or applications?

PMD caps used through ‘70 if I remember correctly, PP caps starting in ‘71 and used from then on as replacements.

The Pontiac Pontiac dog dishes are stainless vs PMD dog dishes are chrome plated copper/brass. The stainless ones don’t crack... I have at least 5 Nice PMD dog dish wall hangars I would be scared to drive at freeway speeds with on my car!

GTO1, That is interesting. I was aware of the cracking problem but didn't know there was a difference in materials. My swap meet finds cleaned up nicely with no cracks. I have heard the repro's have the same splitting problem.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
