hubcaps

This may sound dumb but i haven'y removed my hubcaps yet since i haven't had the car very long yet, I have a 82 Ta with the bowling ball hubcaps, do they just pop off like a older type ? by just prying it off from the edge?

yep, be super SUPER careful though, those are a collectors item. If they're 15" wheels, then i'd just unbolt the wheels, and sell the whole set. With the cash that some knightrider wannabee will give ya, you can buy a set of wheels that actually look good. That's what I did.

I never knew they were so collectable ,aren't there anyone repoping the hubcaps ?
I guess the wheels are not being made anymore so they might be collectors ,never really thought there was that much of a demand.
