Since we’re engaging in a bit of self-reflection, here’s my self image, as caught in a fun-house mirror on a hubcap. Now tell me what vehicle this hubcap is attached to, and you’ll be the big winner!
Speaking of big winners, John Williams gets special mention for not only identifying the Seville, but doing it within the first 60 seconds or less. No exaggeration; I hit the “publish” button, and went to the front page to make sure it was up, and there was his correct guess. The time stamp for both the Clue and his comment are 9:10 PM. Wow. No Google Images for this gentleman. Congratulations.

1950s Studebaker Champion?
Kinda looks like the hubcaps on the ’56 Champion, after the paint is worn off…
Paul, I don’t know where you found a Toyota Toyopet, but call me impressed.
I wish I had, but I didn’t.
I swear you found its hubcap. Perhaps an early U.S. market Crown or Corona?

Almost looks like it, except for what seems to be some sort of “dent” at the top of that inverted triangle.
Hmm. I’ll have to guess either a Kaiser Henry J or an Allstate (honestly they’re the same car…).
^^Well, I guess I’m wrong…
I’m thinking Kaiser too.
I think that this wheel is not on the ground. Must be a spare mounted on some type of truck.
Is that your lovely wife in the background, Paul?
With a “baby moon” hubcap and no trim ring? Who knows? Makes me think of my Uncle Tim’s late 70s LeSabre coupe. Chalky red paint, 1/4 white vinyl top, and he lost every hubcap. He grabbed the old Baby Moon’s out of his garage (trim rings were for a different size rim so he didn’t use them.) That thing made traffic part during the early 1990s just cause it looked like it belong to somebody who didn’t give a rat’s rear end. I HIGHLY doubt it’s a LeSabre. Perhaps Paul has found another GM product?
Not this time, but she can be found in several CC shots. She’s learned to see which way I’m shooting, and prefers to move out of the way. That’s the owner’s GF.
Inquiring minds want to know the identity of the blue car ( to Paul’s left ) in the reflection — I’d say an 80’s Dodge…….
Seriously, I’ll guess the hubcap belongs to a Toyota as well.
I’m going to guess a ’78 Pontiac Sunbird or a Ford Torino.
I’m thinking that’s the Hudson triangle we’re seeing in the center of the hubcap.
hupmobile?
After a long and detailed Google Image search I have determined this is not a Pontiac Aztek. So do I win?
Doc’s comment got me thinking. Probably an early FJ40 or FJ45 – only early US market Toyota that would have a high rear mounted spare.
Nevermind the hubcap, what about the green car-shaped blob reflected in it?
An 1980’s caprice police pack? These hubcaps used to inform us that this car didn’t belong to an old guy…
Seconf guess. something by volkswagen pre-1980 (Vague enough?)
Wild guess…. Hillmann Minx?
I’m thinkin Toyota Land Cruiser? Maybe around ’65?
Dynamic 88 X 2
Just because I want to have a unique guess, I will ask whether it is a Powell Sports utility coupe.
