Default Does this Charlotte tire store still exist?

Hi all,

I'm in Australia and I have a fairly original 66 GT Coupe with an unused old polyester cord 6.95 - 14, 2 ply white wall spare tire. It has this stamp on the inside wall which I think reads:
____________________________
GOODYEAR T & R CHARLOTTE, NC
--------------------------------------

GOODYEAR SERVICE STORE
401 N ELM
GREENSBORO N C 27401


Just wondering if the store still exists and if someone could post up a nice pic of it if it does.

Thanks,

Daniel.

Hey Zodiac! Now why didn't I do that! I honestly assumed that it would not be there any more. I could not see an email address. I'd love to send them this picture. Would I be asking too much for you to make a local call to see if you could get it at all? It's cool if you don't mate.

If I get a chance I will, also if you have facebook it seems they have a page as well.

Odds are, it wouldn't have been Clark Tire back then. Clark Tire started near where I live 70 years ago but has only recently started a big expansion into other areas.

Daniel, if you really want a pic or two of it I would be happy to get them for you on a day that it's not raining. I see that there are some pics on their site though.

Nah All good Jeff. I wasn't thinking and just posted first! Thanks for the offer anyway mate. I'd love to know how old the store is though if any one has any idea.
