Default Original tire market for ‘65-67 Corvettes

I’ve been tasked recently with estimating market value on a large collection of original tires (and some wheels) for ‘65-67 Corvettes. I found the Goodyear date coding decoder and have come to accept that no equivalent decoder is being known or shared for Firestone or US Royal/Uniroyal. I know that there’s a narrow but enthusiastic subset of the Corvette hobby that values these for all the Bloomington Gold points, but after hours and hours of research, it is apparent that these are trading hands privately more often than not, probably in a small circle of restorers/preparers. If any of you (napa68, TimG, olredalert) have any insight you could share about general real world values of never on the ground/minor wear/notable wear 775-15 Goldlines, whitewalls , etc. and how difficult or practical it is to actually sell them to end users, I’d really appreciate a 5 or 10 minute phone call. Tom @ (2 oh 6) 4five9-1563. Thank you!

I just saw this post, I'm glad SBR spoke with you.

I just bought a 1967 Laredo whitewall in 95% condition for $250.
Do you have any Laredo Blackwall tires?
