I'm assuming it's a 60's Oldsmobile, but I want more specifics. And in case you can't tell, it's about a 1 inch concave, like a dog food dish.

Only thing I found is it's listed as 1970 Oldsmobile. Could be on more than one model.

Quick Google search of Oldsmobile hubcaps shows this being from a 1970 Oldsmobile, likely an Eighty-Eight.

I found a link selling them here. http://hubcapsonwheels.com/product_info.p…

Says near bottom of ad what cars it fits. "Note: Delta, Dynamic, Delmont, 88, 98"

Seconding those who came up with 70 Eighty Eight. Most Olds hubcaps before that point have a center circle, and ones after that point have an Olds logo in the middle. Toronado isn't a match, because the hubcaps cover a larger hub, the Ninety Eight has bigger hubcaps, and the 4-4-2 tends to have Rally wheels.

Picked it up for about a buck a year or so ago, thought it would make cool wall art.

"like a dog food dish."

Hence them being called dog dishes in some circles.
