They are available through NCRS Driveline Ads, Hemmings Ads, ebay etc. Be sure to get the Corvette PO2's, as the passenger car hubcaps are similiar. The centers are the difference.

There is one regular vendor at Corvettes Carlisle that sells restored PO2s and he is very reasonable
These caps can be costly and can have the negative aspect of causing wheel / tire balance problems due to thier weight.
The factory had them balanced, check the backs for original balancing weights

BEFORE you buy any PO2's make sure you know what they look like. 72 Monte Carlo (I think?) have similar looking wheel covers. They are often sold as Corvette PO2's when, in actuality, they only resemble the Corvette style.

In a pinch, you can buy a set of the regular Chevrolet flat cap P01/P02 covers and replace the flat caps with correct Corvette items. With the exception of the caps, the wheels are the same.
