Group,
I have had these tires since 1980 and they have been on my 69 Barracuda for a short time only. They have been stored in the basement so they are not damaged or cracked. They are still soft and look great. I had F70-14s on the rear and E70-14s on the front.
I never cleaned any of the white letters off until now since I ran them letters in. They still whiten up nicely.
This Charger in the photo is sporting the same ones.
Do any of you know if they came on any particular car when new?
Can you all think of anyone I should contact to see if they'd like them? I showed my local tire supplier but it is tough to find folks locally that can appreciate things this old, but more so, need them for an old car for just sitting around at shows.
I need to move them out of the basement and I know they are very old but I do not want to just waste them.
Suggestions?

Don't ruin the thread for Tom by offering to buy these. If he wants to sell them he will start a sale thread. Thanks
 
Hey Mike he asked if any knew who he could contact to sell these...yes me!!! Thanks
 
Ok...sorry..was not my intentions...
 
Cool tires...not sure if they were standard on any cars, maybe a Corvette? Those look nice too....I’d run them!
 
@VOETOM Tom, if you go on the Coker Tire site, that should tell you what the tires came on IF they came on anything from the factory.
 
Thanks for everyones' thoughts, opinions, and suggestions. It is likely fair to say these would make great display or "rolling around the garage tires for cars being worked on".

Shipping them would be cost prohibitive so I'll search for folks around the KC area needing them for non-driving uses.

Best I can tell 66, they really weren't offered on anything new. I think radials had already taken over and our muscle cars were in their slow death spiral.

Thank you all again.
Tom Hand
