No it is not a wheel swap gone bad, it was a Mint BP Error until "he" liberated it before I could save it.

That's one heckuva error! I've seen mismatched wheels before, but that takes the cake!

For those variation collectors this one will make you crazy, The front brush guard will have 1 or 2 bars, the winch coils are fine and coarse and 1/2 or 3/4 round spools, small and large headlights and in the bed with and without tool boxes in the corners for starters :D

Yes both wheels are WRRs, and thanks, Snowy is a Chow Chow, I got him in Oct just before my female "Shelby" Chow passed after 16 years and sorely missed :(

New casting? Quick! Take it apart!
Hey, c'mon, that tire combo could happen if you're a redneck. I'm a redneck and think that is normal!! :lol:
I love Snowy. May he live long and prosper.
We outlive pets many times. Always give a new pet a good life to replace a former pet. They deserve the best!

Just a play on words, But your pooch is lucky you have become attached to him or he might have been "dog-gone"!

Hi Dave Good to hear from you again sir :wave:

This one(Snowy) and I have had our moments believe me, I don't remember having to deal with my other Chows as I have with him, maybe it is me getting older, but he is a handful...and very hard headed, much like his owner ;)

I do like the back tire on this one, it's not that bad.

Your dog does look really cute! I've always wanted a dog.

That blasted dog! Errors are harder to sell loose when you go to sell them, since people don't know if it's been faked or not.

On the other hand, interesting screw-up on Mattel's part! I wonder how they could mix up those wheels when they are so diffrent? lol

PS: Is your dog a Chow Chow? One of my Aunts down in Tennessee had a couple, all-black. One of them, she named "Bear". lol They were so fluffy!
