They will fit. The 14" & 15" rallys all used that style from '68 to about '78 when they quit using them. I like the '67 flat cap alittle better.

I like the '66-'67 disc brake type flat caps better than the derby caps. Those derby caps could be made of plastic. They make them in both metal and plastic..or you could go for the flat corporate police/ taxi caps which I used some years back on my old rally wheels.

Here's a pic of a set of rally's I redid using the disc caps...I prefer the short cap look as well.

Jack,
I could not agree more! The flat 9C1 police/ taxi caps do look real good! I have them on my 88 Super Sport with the 15 X 8 wheel.

Not the best picture!
One word of advise, I have the 9C1 police centers from Wheel Vintiques. While they do fit a factory Chevrolet rally wheel their wheel has a raised area that looks like 1/2 a ball bearing to retain their center caps, Chevrolet used a shallower small square for retention. They fit but not very tight. I've ended up chasing center caps on more than one occasion here on New York States smooth as glass roads.
If you can find a GM set, you may be further ahead.
Just my $.02

The car looks great, Bob.
The caps I had were GM issued parts, not the aftermarket ones. In fact, my buddy who used to live up in NY, bought them for me at the Englishtown swapmeet. almost 30 yrs ago. When I moved down here, I had derby caps on my car. Some local lowlife redneck ripped me off right on my driveway and I couldn't prove it.
I made an anti-theft device(s) using a cable and large washer that was drilled for the cable to go thru. The washer was bolted down to one of the wheel studs. Not pretty, but effective.
