They were called 'free wheel' hubs or, if not, they should have been.

That would have been high tech for me Ed. I started towing my Sport Fury to Hampton Raceway back in 71 behind my buddies 68 Cutlass with a chain, no tow light, just unbolt the old trunion driveshaft. I would sit in the race car and have to brake for every light on Sunrise Highway , but I'd have the eight track player going the whole time, it was about an hour tow from West Islip, Machine Head was my tape of choice. In 72 I finally got an old tow bar from Walter Herald for 20 bucks and used it untill 92 when I got my open trailer.
