I'm not sure, but I don't think so. The axle clamp is right under the edge of the bolster casting. On a wide axle, the clamp ends up a few inches outside of the edge of the casting. With the axle run all the way out, it's deceiving though!

Is it just me or does the Yellow Cub look to have 15" front wheels? They sure look larger than the std 12".

Huh, if the long stripe was really a true long stripe I might've bought it for $800.

Yep, I spotted the axle extensions right off too.... the piece on the front is a 'Florida Snow Plow' special attachment.

The yeller one isn't likely to be a long stripe, would have a white grille with white doglegs.... and the hood doesn't look to be attached anyway.
