When.....
Hi Tony
When was the last time Coker made the Chevron tires in 9:00 or 10:50.....
It is a shame everybody keeps re-inventing the wheel.....
.........pun intended.
According to the story, Wade from Texas bought the original molds from someone in Toronto...... could have been old molds from Firestone who operated out of Cobourg I beleive.
In any event they surely needed updating to reflect latest manufacturing processes such as synthetic plys vs cotton.
And of course by law they must contain all the stupid warning molded into the side walls...like do not inflate to 2000 pounds .... do not put them in your nose.... keep away from children.
You would think there would be provision for all the legal jargon to appear on the back side of the side walls so as not to see it....
Our new tires have a very simplistic pattern.... I am sure you have seen the other more artistic patterns that were prominent in the 40s. The different patterns could be a seperate topic or collection issue by themsleves.
