Can anyone identify this car part plz.

Mate of mine has been using this for an ash tray for years. He has asked all his mates what it's off of and no one can identify it.
I thought it might be a spin on cap for a car wheel but got no idea what the initials are.

:| Old Like really Old radiator cap

What's on the inside?
Looks like a wire wheel spinner.

Hi OP. I should have taken a picture of it sorry. The underside is hollow with a steel thread in the center about 25 mm long and maybe 10 mm diam. made of cast aluminium. Its definitely not a radiator cap.

I tried googling vintage car emblems or brands with GH and HG but nothing popped its head up.

There were hundreds of car brands that disappeared over the years , its got to be there somewhere but who knows , maybe its off a filter pack from a milking machine .

Yeah!
Reminds me of a wheel spinner as well

I son't think it's a wheel spinner, or least one that's never been used as there is no deformation where it would have been hit with a dead blow hammer. Of course it also may not off a car at all, it could be something that was designed to be undone by hand, hence the two lugs.

Well it's a wheel spinner... Something simular...



LW...

I was thinking the Hudson Group but
cannot find any reference to that Logo.
Yes, There was a Hudson Hornet racing car.

Maybe just after marker thing for a Holden HG custom mags....maybe

Nah scratch that. Its definitely G before the H.

Could even be OGH.

I knew I shouldn't of clicked on the topic, now I can't stop thinking about it.

We need photos of the reverse side please. lol

Relative to a coin too please.

I have the same problem. :8
Logo is vaguely familiar but I cannot put my finger on it.

Found a picture of the car you are refering to but it was too blurred to see much detail on it.
The wheel caps looked to be brass.

What about along the line of Ghia.

Cheers

There was a grahem nash but it definetly looks like a H i think
