I know this has been an argued point in the past but Norms book shows they only came from the factory with narrow front. I have a dealer price book from 1940 that shows wide and single front as an option but I've never seen one.

I would like to see a "Factory" wide front on an RC myself, I have only seen the WC wide front that is put on the RC.
The RC uses a different front motor mount so the wide front would have to be made different to bolt up correctly. Here is a picture of an RC with a WC wide front, you can see how the wide front mount is "stacked" on the front motor mount. I would really like to see an RC wide front..  ------------- Unless your are the lead horse the scenery never changes!! |
