It might be late 50's. Can you post the serial number?

I believe I ran the numbers before and it was a 63. I could probably search the page where I determined it

Cool build. I’ve been mulling over modding my Firestone. Oddly enough it doesn’t have a place for a front caliper. I want to keep it original but since the tires have been replaced I figure I’ll might as well try to jazz it up a bit
