Hello fellow binders,
Last year I was fortunate enough to acquire an all-original 1917 Model F 1-ton truck from it's original family. Unfortunately, while loading the truck onto the trailer, one of the front solid rubber tires came loose from the cast rim. Dave Richards, owner of Overman Cushion Tire Co. in Canton, OH provided me a quote for new 3-1/2" solid rubber steer tires and 4" solid rubber drive tires; however I would really like to keep the original ones if at all possible. Has anyone ever had the originals pressed back onto the rims and if so, do they typically stay or once they become loose do they need to be replaced. Appreciate any and all advise.
