'61 vs '65 wheels

I think everything will fit okay in a straight swap. Hubs changed and I know the dust caps are different part numbers. But if you have everything for the late wheel, I think it will bolt together. I put what I believe is an early wheel on my'65 and it works fine.

I think it would need the early speedo drive. That's probably the only difference....

That's a good deal. It's not that hard to find an early drive if you need it...

I missed a bid on one for 66 bucks. I have the drive from my 61................i assume it will work on the 65
