Firestone model ?

Have been told it is a 50s Snyder frame but has 50s CWC parts. Guy that is selling it claims his grandpa bought it 30+ years ago this way. 30 year old ratrod?

Chain ring, truss rods, rack, and fenders are CWC, on a Snyder frame. I've seen a 1959 Firestone ad with Snyder bikes, straight bar frames. -Adam

Got it home today. Looks like it is a Snyder with CWC skip tooth parts.

Guessing someone cut the ears off of the front forks that held the truss rods.
