Needed: four original 14-inch rims for 1963 Lincoln Continental Sedan

A friend of mine recently purchased a low-mileage '63 Continental. Appears to be all original (i.e., factory stock), except that somewhere along the way, it's original 14-inch rims were replaced by 15-inch rims and hubcaps.

I have three of the four correct '63 hubcaps, but only the spare tire rim is correct. Any ideas what years/other Ford products would interchange with them, and where I might be able to obtain a decent set? We want the car to be "Fall Hershey Correct"!

Also, any non-old tire manufacturer make a correct 235/75/14 one-inch whitewall? I know I could get them from an antique tire source, but we are trying to keep costs down as much as possible. (And yes, I know that "Hershey Correct" would dictate 9.00 x 14 bias-plys--we are going the radial route at this time for handling and safety reasons, so no debates on that, please...)

Thanks

Mike
