I don't know if these are the correct size - but you might ask Chevs of the 40's for some measurements to see if it's what you need.

The only clips that will work is clips off an period 8 lug wheel ( 1948-1968). Unfortunately, many of these rims have got scrapped, but not all, some are still found in older wrecking yards. Bring a chisel.

Unfortunately all the wrecking yards here in Albuquerque and surrounding area have got rid of all their older vehicles. They concentrate on 1990s on up anymore around here
