At Fresh Design Blog, we love nifty new design ideas, especially when created from recycled materials, so we were pleased to discover this clever clock idea from GreenWisdom.
Made from a recycled 19s0s 8″ Volkswagen hubcab, which has been polished, waxed and detailed, this clock gives new life to an old car part. Good quality Takane clock movements have been fixed onto the hubcap to it turn into a fully functioning timepiece.
Each hubcap is unique, as there often subtle differences in the hubcap designs from year to year, so no two clocks are exactly the same.
This is a really fun use of a hubcap, would be a great gift for the man in your life and is a definite must-have for car lovers! The hubcap clock can be purchased from the GreenWisdom store on Etsy for $58.99.
