Try contacting Stoudt Corvettes in Reading PA. They have a lot of NOS, and salvaged stuff too.
I'm positive that Ecklers has them as well.

Great website. I checked their on-line catalog, found the part, called the toll-free number and ordered the part. $12 plus UPS shipping. They will send it out today. With their catalog.
Now I will glue them on. Some way, some how.

Hey Dave, sorry I didn't see this sooner but I have some extra caps with emblems. I use silicon adhesive on mine to help keep them on.

DWRIGHT,
I had the same problem when I had the aluminum rims on my '79. When I got the replacement caps I ran a thin piece of duct tape around the little lip at the bottom of the cap. This filled in the gap a bit more and made for a snug fit. I trimmed it with an exacto razor knife so nothing was visible.
Good luck with yours!
P.S. I have Rallyes on my car now. Three out of the four centers are the plastic repros. I can't get them off. It feels like they're going to break instead of letting go. Wish me luck.

I put the rtv in the groove where the caps are supposed to snap into. This will allow the rtv to contact both the wheel and the center cap. If you get too much, you just let it dry and trim it with an Xacto knife.

Hi Dave, I spoke to my cousin. He is going to look for them. He wasn't sure if he had them or if his brother in law has them. (that's where the spinners came from) He was going to check and let me know. If he finds them they are yours.... Keep your fingers crossed!

The center cap came in the mail yesterday. Looks so good, I may need to replace the other three.

It is a GM restoration, but it looks identical to the others. The center logo is part of the cap.
