I am looking for a wheelcover for a 64 Avanti, also a windshield wiper switch.

NOS wheel covers are still out there, some of the vendors may have them?

Happy hunting!

Jim,

You may know this already, but.........  The Avanti wheel covers were reproduced many (25 or so ?) years ago, by. I think, Studebaker International.  I believe they sold out of them a few years ago or so.  Wheel covers are not a high profit item, so that would factor in whether someone reproduces them again.  But, there are used ones out there.  After all, those who bought the new ones shouldn't need their old ones.

Also, on ebay, someone is selling vinyl kits to replicate the black parts of Avanti wheel covers.  I have used them and they are excellent.

You might not be aware but there is a replacement from a Dodge Dart (70's) that looks exactly the same and adds a "knob push" to wash feature that runs a washer fluid pump ( at least some do)
