Series 3 rear hub - production change date?
Posted: Thu Mar 10, 2022 9:05 pm
Does anyone know when in Series 3 production the rear hubs changed to the SX/GP type?
The front (drum) hub design changed dramatically in January 1964 (according to Vittorio), but I've never been able find info on when the rear hub was changed. I always assumed it was around the same time, but I was recently given a Golden Special project (July 1965) by a good friend, and the rear hub (in original paint) is the earlier type. Any ideas when the production change was made? Late '65? Early in '66? Even later?
