The Schlor Pilbug seems to have the same track, front and rear.

The Citroen SM on the other hand seems to have a slightly narrower rear track.

The SM is an interesting car to follow behind as it is in motion. The rear track is about 10" narrower than the front, making it look like it's "dog tracking" even though it isn't. They taper radically from front-to-rear, width-wise. Porsche 356s had much the same overhead taper, too.
How does basjoos get his front wheels to turn?
