I take it they are more rare?

WF appears to use WD parts, but a narrowed rear with the gears turned forward for less clearance and a shorter wheel base. That's probably simplified. I've seen a few at shows. Worth comparing to a WD.

When you compare #'s made they are quite rare compared to WC/ WD's. There were 6450 in the streamlined version compared to over 100,000 WC's and 230,000 WD/WD45's. They were based on the WC and made from 1937-1951.

The WF is the standard tread version of the WC. I'd like to get one someday. Yep, considerably more rare compared to the WC.

MnLonnie, did you notice the missing rib I spoke of at the rear of the fender in the ebay pictures.
