Gary,
That's a good looking Electra. :TU:
I think that I bought the last set on earth last year from The Buick Farm.
You could try them to see if they ever got anymore.
If they do, then buy more than you'll need.
I'm still looking to get at least 4 more of them so let me know how you do.

Try CARS, Inc. at www.oldbuickparts.com. They show clips for dog-dish caps in their catalog. Go into the catalog that covers 1936-60 Buicks, at least that's the catalog I have, and they're in there. I've never looked at the catalog that would cover your year; maybe they're in there as well. Good luck.

Without a picture, it is hard to tell if those are the right ones.
There were several different varieties of those clips for different hubcap & wheel combos.
My '65 parts catalog shows Group #5.864 part #1352802 as the correct ones.
Try getting photos from them and we can compare them to one of mine. :TU:

True enough, there are different styles, and I actually bought the ones I have from the Buick Farm, but I have a '58 Special. I only mentioned that CARS, Inc., offers them as a possible option for you. You'd have to either call them, or check their on-line catalog to ensure what they sell is correct for your car.

As mentioned above, I bought clips from Fusick's. They are about 15 minutes from my house. I used them on my previous '55. They were a bit of a pain though - at least for the '55. I had to drill small holes in the rim and screw them in with teeny stainless screws. It worked though and I never had a problem with them.
