Goodrich Silvertown Belted Wide. This is a thin whitewall tire.

Thanks!

ttt... Trying to get a handle on the manufacture date so I can close the deal with Sully's tire for sale.

Thanks!

Goodrich was funky and can be difficult to decipher.
From the few remaining records I have,it looks like a 40th week of 1973 DOT made at their Azcapotzalco,Mexico plant.
That is just my opinion..
