The Ford Barn

When I bought my A the previous owner was desperately getting rid of stuff. He gave me an awesome shop fan so when he threw 5 old tires in my truck I took them because it's hard to get rid of tires in Houston. I live in a county that will take them at the dump. I was loading them up to get rid of them and was surprised a the condition of four of them. No visible cracks and very little wear. They are Garfield 4.75/5.00-19 81P black wall. I don't want anything for them but was wondering if they might be usable to someone else. Any thoughts?

I had some used Firestone 19s that I took off my TS. I had a note sent out to the local club that I would give them and someone took them off my hands almost immediately. They would be good for a roller or maybe some short trips. Go for it.

Wish you lived closer. They'd be gone in a minute.

Garfields are good.

Hate to admit it but them zig-zag bad boys ARE good tires they wear a long time. Ugly as sin, but boy they last...............

I'll put my hand up for them. Any chance of delivery?

I put them on Houston Craiglist and they were just picked up!! A guy in his twenties who's building an A from parts. Very cool guy. He drove 60 miles and was very appreciative.
