Default Need key wrench, '85 Delta 88 Royale

Hi, new here.
I was given this vehicle in payment for a debt.
It has locking wire wheel covers that are held in place by a special center nut that requires a key wrench to remove, which I do not have.
I got 3 of the nuts out with Liquid Wrench and needlenose pliers but the 4th one will not budge. I can't find the wrench on eBay. Would a GM dealer carry this tool?
Thanks,
Ray Mac

MAYBE, but you never know. I know they used to, but with the age of the car and the fact that they quit using that style years ago there may not be any left. All you can do it call.

Thanks f0r the reply, I didn't have the time to track down a dealer.
Since I wanted to take a trip in it after doing engine repairs, I couldn't risk getting a flat tire and not being able to get the wheel off. So a hammer, chisel and a little time did the job. With the style of wheels people seem to like these days I doubt anybody would want to steal these wire covers anyway.
