You have two choices. You can test ride the bike and see how it tracks riding no hands, or you can put a straight edge on line with the head tube and see if the upper straight sections of the fork blades are in line. Best bet would be to do both.
It will be an interesting ride though without tires! The OP has allow for tire and tube expense as well which easily could exceed the cost of the bike.
