There were many running changes within the 72 model year and I always have 
trouble remembering which occurred when, but a check of the microfilm shows 
that the 4 spoke wheel started at the beginning of the 72 model year.

I suspect that a lot of these were changed by POs who liked the look/feel of 
the older style. I know I prefer the older ones.
