Bob,
 
I think that's a good assessment.  The damper looks very old and the rubber
seems hard - it was on my list to replace......

This is a '65 Coupe 110 PG with a harmonic damper!  I think the mileage is
fairly low, <120k (speedo broke at 74k).  When I removed the engine I could
tell it has been removed before.  

Thanks, David,
Sorry but there doesn't seem to be any one cause of the crank breaking that
is obvious. Perhaps something happened before you obtained ownership. Also,
and this is a long shot, maybe the harmonic damper is defective caused by a
hardening of the rubber separator.

Bob Helt
