I had not thought that the universal 68 side-pull went back that far. They
are fairly common (I might be able to part with a set), but the only way I
know to get proper gum rubber hoods is to buy a NOS set of 68s, or a NOS
set of 61 and toss the calipers (my direction is ok).
I would be looking for a steel, forged, crank set, and 3-piece hubs. Would it have had early alloy rims, or late wood?
