    When did ventilated discs become an option ?

    Can anyone tell me if ventilated discs were available on a 1967 911 Coupe ?
    When were they first available as an option ?
    Thanks
    David

    Well they were certainly standard on the 67 S, don't know if they could be optioned for 911 normals however.

    I had a 67 normal, one of the last 500 built, it had ventilated discs. Everything else on the car was original . Since they changed over to vented for 68, I assumed they could have made the change on some late 67 normal cars but I ‘m only speculating. Is changing over to ventilated discs on the rear an easy switch or is there some difference in the hub?
