That's a great question?

I myself would think since they are looking for original lug nuts under the caps and would hope they are also checking the flutes, but your question now leaves me curious as to whether they look for single or double fluted caps or not. I'll be watching this thread to see what comes of that.

Maybe Steve or someone who has gone through Legends can chime in and confirm this?

For survivor judging they are definitely looking for the original double flute, if they are good judges.

In the 1969 Legends Judging Manual, pages 25, 26, 27 Wheels, Wheel Covers and Wheels, Center Caps sections there is little mention of Derby Caps and no mention of the double fluted design, Derby Cap removal or underside inspection. Removal and underside inspection of Derby Caps is not a standard part of Vintage Certification judging.
