Re: 33 ignition switch
The parts catalogs only list parts that were serviced, not every last part that made up the whole. The subject plate evidently was not offered as a service part.

Re: I pickup a old Firestone Tire 18 inch
It's not original '32 equipment as that would be a 5.25 x 18 tire, not 5.25/5.50. Where was the tire manufactured (that's also molded into the sidewall near the outer edge). The three likely...
