Tires were date stamped 1966 so yes. They were replaced at some time in the bike's 80 year life.
No marks on the frame to show any other chain guard was mounted either so it's all good.
AS bolts on springer. Decal remnants on seat mast under the chain guard mount and on the steer tube.
Both rims have Lobdell ink stamp remnants.
It's an odd Ranger for sure.
Could be a special order...jobber assembled....one trick pony.
It's all cleaned up now so when it cools down and I get it back out in the sun, I'll post some glamour shots.
