Default hubcap help

I have the original spoke caps for my 66 that i was going to put back on until i have the funds to buy the wheels i really want. The problem is that a couple of the have a tendency to fall off while driving it. Is there anything i can do to make them stay on better?
Thanks

as long as your getting rid of the wheels once you buy new ones theres no harm in gluing them on

Careful reshaping of the prongs will cure that. Which is good, because replacements are like $130. Excellent wheelcover, probably the best looking wire wheelcover ever produced.

I love those old wire wheelcovers. Have to be a little careful cleaning them, but they just look so cool!

The wire wheelcovers were all about sports cars back in the day:
