Sherwin Williams used to make an alkyd enamel called "Flame Red" which was a very good match for the hubcaps.

For your touch-up you might try Tower Paint (see advertisement in Hemmings); they've mixed several original colors for me in rattle cans for touch-up and the matches were excellent. Perhaps they'd pack in cans rather than aerosol if that's what you wanted. If not, try having the existing color scanned by a good paint shop. It's amazing what great results can be obtained.
