No way! I assumed no one made these tires anymore. That great to know and I bet they look really good on Pappy. :yup:
There a company called Coker Tires and they specialize on making original classic reproduction tires. These 700x16 NDT (non directional tires) were made by Firestone back in the day and they were made using the original molds. They even have all the logos and markings. It's way cool. Had to get inner tubes for them and tire liners to make the work too. Now, I've either gotta find a shop that will work with these or I might have to get me a home tire machine. :crazyeyes:
We're a long way off but we're kinda hoping to make it look like this when all is said and done.

Great job on getting the tires mounted up at home :thumb:
Curious, why did you choose to go with white wheels vs the black ones? Is that period correct, or you just liked it better?
