I seem to recall that it was a calendar year thing. Jan. 1, 1968
brought a bunch of new safety and emission regulations. I'm not sure
that dual circuit brakes were one of them at that time.
I have a '69 XKE that does not have dual circuit brakes. It does have
two brake fluid reservoirs, but not an additional set of brake lines, so
I don't consider it dual circuit. Foreign cars were not exempt.
