The old man stopped working on the car in '63, so the tires are somewhere in that era.
Tires were put on and then the car stored for next 53 years.
I don't think the tires ever saw the road until I bought the car three years ago.
Can you still buy "Sears" tires?
We have a set of Bedford's that look just like these and they are wearing great. At least 40 years old. Garfield-Sears-Allstate-Bedford had to be made by the same company they all have that ugly zig-zag tread pattern. I wish they'd go bad so I can buy new but I'm too cheap for that.

Ugly tread pattern. You know, the one that looks like Charlie Brown's shirt
