Atmobil Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Yes, why not.

Crazy Ed Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 I'm with you Ray. If they're 15"ers I'd trade my Ralleys off my Elkie for 'em. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Geiger Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 actually it's cleanly built, not a junk heap with stuff hanging off of it. I'd anticipate that it drove and stopped well, so why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
