Go to this site: http://www.hubcaps.org/rambler.html I didn't see it listed but you may be able to email the photo to them and have them identify it. I looked in one of my reference books and didn't see any on a Rambler that I could definitely say was it. It may be a '56 but I can't tell for sure. >> Stay informed about: need help with Rambler Hub Cap ID

Here is a Club for Nash Ramblers in case your cap is pre AMC Rambler. Someone at one of these clubs is bound to be able to identify your hubcap. http://www.nashcarclub.org/ >> Stay informed about: need help with Rambler Hub Cap ID

uPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION, I see that that style "R" was first used in 1961. Previous Ramblers (those made by Nash before AMC) uded a script "R" in the same font as The Nash "N" and the Metropolitan "M". This eliminates 1950 thru 1960. Hope this helps. >> Stay informed about: need help with Rambler Hub Cap ID

1967 Rambler American. See: http://www.bobbittville.com/Rambler-1965American220MattSchmitz.jpg I think 1966 might be the same. Ken D.

Very good. 1967 looks correct. It looks like those a re probably the standard hubcaps for the base model. The more expensive models or optioned up models likely have full wheel covers. >> Stay informed about: need help with Rambler Hub Cap ID

Here's a 1965 Rambler with the same hubcaps. Ken is probably correct about them being used for multiple years. They do seem to be found on the base models only. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/816440 >> Stay informed about: need help with Rambler Hub Cap ID

Careful, I drive a '65 and the '65 you show has the wrong year full wheel covers on it. Ken D.
