A little quiz for all you clever people. We found this hubcap when clearing the mud that'd come out for our kitchen foundations. Talking to locals that seems to make it pre 1960s as no-one remembers anything being done in that area before.

It's about 5.5" diameter & appears to be off a Ford...

Ford 10? If that's what it was called. Wire wheels and rearward opening doors.

That was quick! Although the ones I can see on google don't have the ridge around the name badge, I suspect that changed year by year though?
