For Sale -- Four 600x21 tires, tubes and flaps off of a Packard

I have a set of four wide white wall 600x21" tires for sale. These include the tubes and the flaps. The set came off a 1926 Packard when I put the correct size tires on, and these are still in good shape. Lots of tread left; rubber is soft and pliable. Tubes were all good when removed. The only detraction is the white walls are beginning to deteriorate.The tires are Lester rib tread and about 30 years old, but because they are Made in USA, they are still in quite good shape. New tires are $299 each, flaps $27, tubes $29 (Lester website).I'd like $500 for all four tires, flaps and tubes. Plus shipping.Reply to dwyers@rpi.edu

I am looking for some inner tubes for my 1927 Pierce arrow and noticed that you listed Lester inner tubes in your For Sale listing. Do you have a specific source for these tube? I could not find a Lester site. I have checked with Coker, Universal and Lucas and they do not have the tube. The size that I am looking for are for 7.00 x 21 tires. Thank.s

I got the 700x21" tires from Universal on two occasions --- back in about 2002 and again in around 2009 when they wore out. (I drove the car alot).

Here's the website:

https://www.universaltire.com/700-21-firestone-blackwall.html

Or give them a call. According to the website they do seem to be available however they might not be exactly 700x21" tubes. Sometimes a smaller tube can be used which could be what they are referring to here. But I would prefer the correct size if you can get it. I can't recall now if I used the full sized tube or a smaller one. Be sure that you use flaps.

Happy Motoring --- Scott

PS: Is that a 1927 Pierce Model 36? I like those cars very much.

Concerning the inner tubes on a 700x21 tire,

I checked and when I ran 700x21's on my Packard I did indeed use the smaller inner tubes which are listed on the Universal website. The ones listed as F19/20. They worked fine --- never had a flat.

Took me 5 months to find some 7.00-20 tubes. If you still need tubes contact me at lasalle1931@juno.com Bill
