1953 Ford Jubilee Low Profile - How Rare?

I came upon a Ford Jubilee yesterday with short spindles and tires in front and smaller tires in back. The spindles are shorter than my Jubilee at home. The front tires are much smaller - probably 10" or 12" diameter. The rear tires are much smaller ag tires - maybe 16" diameter. All parts look factory - no obvious blacksmith work. How rare/common are these low profile Jubilees? Thanks, Craig
 
I don't think that they ever made an LCG version of the NAA form the factory, but it would be a direct swap to replace the spindles with ones from a later 4 cylinder 2000 LCG model.
 
Thanks for all the insight. I had never seen one before and thought it would be an interesting addition to my collection. A dealer in Williamsburg, MI has it for sale - looks rough with parts missing and a tough looking loader.
 
I think I found the tractor Craig is refering to. Looks like a farmerized conversion to me. The front axle looks like a straight front axle was added after removing the factory swept back adjustable parts.

Correction, upon review of all pictures, it does not have a straight axle. It must have the short knees from a later low ground clearance model.

What you thought was a straight front axle in some of the pictures looks to be a bracket hanging below the engine, possibly for a snow plow.
