Guys,
Sorry for not jumping in earlier. I'm starting to compile info as I get it, and I'll be posting a link soon where you can look at the data we have so far. I'm also in need of suggestions from everyone on what needs to be included. Blue Order's post above shows what he sent me, and it's pretty complete. I'd also like bottom bracket and headset information, as he noted, and anything else you see that we might have forgotten.
Pertinent questions:
Where are the date codes on components commonly found? Example: Normandy hubs have a week and year code, like 04 77 meaning 4th week of 1977.
What are the other components to check out?
Who has reference materials, such as catalogs and owners manuals? I just finished scanning a 1977 owners manual, which I'll be posting soon.
T-Mar, I know you know more than I do about the history of these bikes. Guidelines would be appreciated. Same goes for everyone else - I'll be the clearinghouse, and maybe we can find some pattern to the jumble of information out there.
