Black. What did it come with originally? Are you going to restore it, use it as a rider, or just as it is? Inquiring minds want to know.

Black wall Firestone High Speed tires is what came on it. The orignal front was still on it. Rims are painted the bike color with white pin stripes. These bikes were built for Firestone to sell in there stores.

I had a 1930's Lincoln bike with locking fork that was my Grandfather's bike. I rode it all over the place. Sadly I lost it in a house fire. Nice bike!
