I can't stop looking at those pictures. I would find a set of Tornado white walls to be 100% and then enter it in every bike show possible. ;)

Here's a thread on those early middleweight tires. http://thecabe.com/forum/threads/rare-schwinn-tornado-tire.85520/#post-535300

Super nice Vette. Love the red.
All the original tire 1st gen Vettes and Jags I've had, prolly 40-50 bikes, have had the same tires as the OP's bike, Westwinds. Don't recall ever seeing those Tornado tires before. Maybe on the very early 54/55 bikes? My '57 Corvette is also pristine, was ridden only a few times then stored away, and has the same tires.

BTW, I notice yours still has the little Weimann tags hung by thread on the caliper cables, just like mine does, a true sign of a low-mile bike! Wonder where the blue Mayweg tag on the front of rack went?
