Well, what I'd like to do is use a nice modern Campagnolo light weight, hollow spindle, cartridge bottom bracket like a Centaur or Chorus with a vintage Record Strada crank. Hence why I need to know if Campagnolo ever changed the spindles. In fact, IIRC, it might have been you that said you had problems trying something like that John. If you look at modern square taper Campy spindles today they specify ISO taper. But now Bob Baker is saying the old ones were NOT ISO. So now I really don't know. Alas, if only I had a Sutherland's.
