Re: [Amc-list] wheels needed



I'd add that the 14X6" are easier to find by looking for 70-s up wheels.
Shipping wheels can be expensive.
I know I have one solid straight 14X5.5" off my 69. Should have two.
Let me know if'n you want me to try to scrounge up a second.
I'll have to make sure they are true of course. Not sure what I need fer'm. Never thunk much bout sellin'em.
