Definitely a VDC BB. Not sure of the time frame, early 80's is just a guess. I believe Reilley had one on his 80' Sting. They are a cool piece for sure.

Yes, it is a VDC Bottom Bracket. Made early 80's.
I think it was done when I was B&D Sales.

Voris


I then asked if it would be around 81 and he confirmed its around that time.

So problem solved :nah.I.mean:
