In the resent issue of Hot Rod Delux Tommy Lee Byrd writes ; " In many cases, Coker Tire restores original tire molds and puts them back into production to create authentic tires. If the molds are not serviceable, Coker Tire seeks out the original blueprint drawings in order to build a new mold. As a last-ditch effort (if the mold and drawings are not accessible), the company will track down a true original tire and reverse-engineer it. Coker Tires licensing relationship with companies such as Firestone results in period-correct tires with the appropriate branding, sizes and style." Read through this a few times. Does it ring true to the modeling industry? In some ways and some ways not? and why not? Coker has been around for quite a while and are quite successful, wouldn't you say?
