"I have newly installed mag wheels on my TR-3 and am searching for round (1 and
5/8 in diameter), Triumph medalions (preferably the one of the world), to
attach to the center hub of the wheels.  Would prefer a bolt-on type but will
take glue-on types if that is all  I can get.  Anyone know where such items
exist?

What I did to convert TR6 wheels for a TR4 may work for you. I'm using TR6
wheels on a TR4 but wanted the finished look of the TR6 wheel centers caps. The
medallions on these caps are about 2.25 inches diameter and have a "TR6" decal
that wouldn't look right on a TR4. I removed the old decals and got new decals
with the Triumph Globe from Joe Curry (Thanks Joe!). They look great. These
decals are a shade under 2 inches which might be too big for your application.
If you could find a medallion of the size you want, you might be able to get a
Triumph Globe decal to fit. If the TR6 medallion size will work, then do what I
did. Used medallions with good chrome can be found cheaply on E-Bay - there's
some for sale there now.
