changing wheel pcd

I am busy with a 1938 Chev streetrod on which I have installed a Granada front suspension and the diff is a Chev
now what I am wanting to know is this the Granada PCD is 5x112 and the Chev is 5x120 same as the BMW, I believe it is easy enough to redrill the sideshafts on the diff to match the front, but seems like 17"rims with a pcd of 5x112 is not to common, how difficult is it to alter the front hubs to match 5x120 and are rims more available for 5x120

Granada is 5 x 4.5" 'same as' American Ford, Toyota Hi-Ace & old Hilux bakkie, VW Kombi, Merc, Volvo 122(not 144).
Chev is 5 x 4.75" 'same as' BMW, Jag
I say 'same as' because there are minor (couple 0,mm's) difference in pcd. Always best to check before purchasing. As a bit of a wheelwhore myself i take an old brake drum and wheel nuts with when looking at any rims to ensure that they bolt up snugly.
