Similar ad as the others with 69 500 and the Charger RT.My girlfriend Anne had me searching into this magazine

Teen April, 1969 Magazine
Teen focused on fashion and beauty and school for teens, however their coverage on celebs was fabulous! With exclusive photos taken by their press, these magazines have photos not published since! If a press photo was used, I will note that. Fashion layouts with models that worked their way into being super models and movie stars from Colleen Corby, Cheryl Tiegs to Kathy Davis Fuller and Susan Dey! They all started here! And what groovy fashions too!
Featured in this issue:

Cover Girl: Joanne Vitelli, who is featured through out this issue
Dodge Chrystler Color Fashion Feature - models with new Dodge vehicles from 1969 with Charger R/T, Charger 500, Coronet Super Bee, Swinger 340 Dodge Dart plus 7 more pages of models again with these cars!!!!

Yup that's the issue I picked up.
Weird place to put big dollar car ads as there is a gto judge ad in there too.
I know when I was a youngin I didn't have a whole lot of input as to which car Dad bought.If that were true there would have been a superbird in the family.I really dug the big road runner on the wing.

:iagree: they look very nice indeed  :drool5: Were they actually released on 69's? I'm surprised they're not here http://www.hubcaps.org/charger.html
"An aggressive exterior with power to match was enough to pull in the performance boys-especially when abetted by a pair of pipes blaring out the back, and brawny red-sidewall rubber hitting the pavement."

I can't answer as to whether they were officially released on Chargers or not but I can tell you that particular Charger in the photo is still wearing them to this day.

I really like them and its a great cheap alternative to the recall wheels I really want .  I will someday buy the repop recalls but at 2k for them it will be awhile.   I will be able to run these untill then .  Plus my car is already running on steel wheels .   :Twocents:

The hubcaps in question were the Sales Code W-15 wheel covers for full-size Dodge Division cars (Polara, Monaco and their variants).  They only came in 15" sizes, but were not listed anywhere in the 1969 Sales Code Manual information as an alternative for Hemicars.

For (post W23 recall) '69 Hemi B-bodies, the only "Wheel Cap or Cover" options were as follows:

2944088 - Plymouth Division Hub Cap, Standard Equipment
2944089 - Dodge Division Hub Cap, Standard Equipment
2881753 - 15" Cover (Class I), Sales Code W11 - used on 1968 model year cars too

The C-body wheel covers found on the press-release C500 are part number 2944080, which was a Class III cover.  Dealer instructions for handling/replacing the W23 recall wheels don't say exactly which wheel cover was supposed to be installed, so if the dealership workers were in a hurry it's at least possible that a service department (or Dodge marketing guys, in the case of the press-release C500) grabbed whatever 15" wheel covers they could find and slapped 2944080's on.  Chrysler was responsible for providing replacement parts on W23 cars already shipped to dealers or owners, and that included wheel covers.  Apparently, after the W23 option was cancelled, the factories were only "supposed" to use the 2881753 - which was a carryover wheel cover from 1968 and was pretty much the only option for Hemicars other than the standard hubcaps.  As with many other things, they probably sent out as replacements or originally installed whatever they had handy at the time when correct parts supplies ran low.

The Polara-style covers look fine to me, and the press-release C500 gave that look some notoriety, for sure.

Found this picture of what appears to be the 68 Jerry Service prototype with recalls and not the hubcaps .Mike Russo old car had the recalls replaced by those kind of hubcaps
