I thought this was the one that everybody said was a real bitch to get apart
but was not sure. We don't have and Advance Auto Parts in this area but will
check with the ones we have.

If I had the storage space I would probably keep it for later. I'll have to
give it some thought. I would hate to junk an RWA that is fixable.

The wheels turned out to be Western Mags, 13 x 5.5 with "one size fits all"
oval holes.
