How about 62 GT Hawk wheel discs or Avanti?

'59-'63 used the same wheel covers, they were just trimmed in different colors for different years and models, so they shouldn't be too hard to find. You can get repops for around $75 each, but used will be less. Sticker kits to replace the paint (usually gone by now) are available on Ebay for around $30 for a set of covers worth.
Or you can spend a tedious 45 minutes per cover to tape and paint them like I did (before I discovered the stickers).
Here are my repainted '62 covers.

Wheel Covers should fit the Ford Wheels, but if it is "Hub Caps" you are wanting, no Studebaker Hub Cap will fit Ford Wheels.StudeRich

Okay, good to know, I need wheel covers, not hub caps and Studebaker is the only way to go. And thanks bensherb, after seeing how good the ones you have, know that is the way I must go. The wire wheels look good but after lug nuts worked loose on one wheel destroying threads on lugs, just don’t trust them driving on freeway. Thanks Guys, the hunt is on.
