SKF was the supplier.

"full super record"

super record had titanium bottom bracket spindle and pedal shafts. Might have, but most likely these parts are steel. Magnet test for an full answer.

I would as J Thompson wrote- just gently push the old bearings out. Or, just clean and inspect.
if the headset shows false brinelling (dents in races) go to loose bearings and add at least one compared to caged units.

on the bottom bracket, if it has not been apart for 25-30 years.... hopefully the spindle is not trashed. Take it apart and inspect fully- spindle dies before the cups.
