Default 1964 Steel Wheel accesories

I have recently purchased, but yet to receive, a full compliment of 15 x 5.5 KH wheels for my 1964 Convertible Corvette. I have sourced and plan to purchase the correct 670 x 15 one inch white wall tires for same from Coker Tire company in Chattanooga. Can anyone advise where the best source for original lug nuts, valve stems and caps would be? Trying to get the car ready for judging and I am very new to this process. Please forgive the dumb questions as I am not a "car man / mechanic" and thanks in advance for any assistance.

There was a mint, NOS set of ‘64 caps at Hershey a couple weeks ago.

I think this is something you could find at a swap reasonably easily. They aren’t rare or terribly expensive.

Your car would have had frosted or polished wheel covers....do you know which your looking for?
