FS: Original Unused Firestone Steel Radial 500
I have one (1) original and UNUSED Firestone Steel Radial 500 for sale. I bought this several years ago to use with a '75 convertible that I sold a few years ago. It is taking up space in the garage and I think it is time to see if someone else could use it.
First off, I would recommend that this tire be used for DISPLAY PURPOSES ONLY. These tires were recalled back in the late 70's and apparently this one was in a spare tire carrier and never was put on the ground.
Tire: VDU5 FMJ055
V - Firestone
D - Plant Code
U5 - Tire Size: GR70-15
FMJ - Tire Type / Construction
055 - 5th week of 1975
Wheel: K-1-5 2 5 AZ
K - Kelsey
1 - Chevrolet
5 - 1975
2 - February
5 - 5th of February
AZ - 8" Rally Wheel
Tire is able to hold air; no flat spots. Factory stripe and code paint is still visible on the tread. Excellent tire / wheel combination for someone who is looking for originality.
Please review the photos and let me know if you have any questions.
Price: SOLD.
