Clay wheels and hubcaps

Here’s an interesting piece of history. Aside from looking really sharp, this vintage Nash skateboard features clay/composite wheels and something I’ve never seen on a board from this time period, wheel covers, although some people would have you believe these are a recent invention. Check out the auction while it lasts for some larger versions of the pics. A really nice board here.

I remember Alva came out with some buttons that fit their wheels in the early 80s, they made some great wheel covers.
Does anyone remember the 80′s Nash skateboard deck called Dog Cheese?
Yeah it was my first skate board it was a hot pink color and it was a huge hunk of wood compaired to todays decks.I wish I would have kept it I hated but loved it.
Do you remember where you bought it?
How did they come up with that name? Did it have to do with LA’s jazz fusion supergroup named Dog Cheese?
One time, the local newspaper came to my high school to find out what wacky lingo the kids were using. We made up ridiculous shit. One kid said “dog cheese” meant “really cool.” About six months later there was a Dog Cheese skateboard at our local skateshop. I always wondered if Nash read that article.
