  My Canadian-built 47 Deluxe Fordor has a Goodyear Deluxe All Weather 4 ply 600-16 spare in the trunk marked Made In Canada with the code C-16968-7.

The tire is a not a white wall, looks like it's never been used and is still inflated. The tires mounted on the car are whitewalls dated 2011. Is the spare an original tire from 1947?

  Suggest you search the web for Canadian tire date codes.
