What kind of wheels & crank set came on late 60's early 70's Paramounts?

I've been here:

Hubs are Campy Record high flange, crankset Campy Nuovo Record.

Clincher rims are Weinmann, my 71 came with Weinmann wood-filled tubular rims. I am not sure about other tubular rims offered.

...and if you want to run high-pressure tires, I highly suggest period Mavic Module 3 or Module E rims as substitutes to the rather uninspiring, original Weinmanns spec'ed on them.
