Back then, 60's,  3-5 years rubber was shot. Metals would last
at least this long.  Rebuild was cleaning and replacing rubber
and honing.  Today the rubber is outlasting the  metals.
 Chances are the cyl. has rust in it and honing would not
remove this.  Kits for these are everywhere, and very cheap,
because no one uses them.
