All GPA's untill end of 12/42 or very early jan 43.

The Ford tire brand was totally dismounted and send to Russia to produce tires (land lease program). Russians never remount the brand. The 600-16 mold still must be somewhere by there ...

Untouched GPA 4926 ; D.O.D. Dec -28 - 1942 has Firestone Tires!
I' ll suppose they were assembled on the first 1000 GPA's like
the date on the normal GPW's.
