Does anyone have a pic or detailed description of what factory correct hubcaps look like on a 51 Cosmopolitan?

  Here is a link to the 51 sales brochure with drawings of the cars.

It appears that the Capri and the Lido had different caps than the Lincoln or Cosmopolitan.

Here is a link to photos of 51 Lincolns
