Question on O's

[cooperino]

Did O's come with rear fenders? Was it an option? I see Lots of them with out any and some with. I even saw a drawing or rendering of one without fenders that looked like a drawing from IH. I am looking at one for sale and it does not have rear fenders.
If it is suppose to have them I would imagine they are not cheap or easy to come by.

Thanks in advance for any help.

It was an option. And yes, they are expensive if you find a set today.

Expensive is relative. They usually run about $250/$300 depending on who's selling. You can find them for less.

True. It is relative.

Perhaps it's just expensive to me. I work Automotive. I quote Class A (paint surface quality) stampings to varioius auto OEMs. The entire left hand and right hand bodyside main stamping on a car doesn't run $250, so I guess it just comes off as expensive to me. Of course I doubt these tools do much stamping these days, and there are a limited number of O fenders on the market, so they are priced accordingly. I just can't wrap my head around paying that, but I know I would and will if I ever get my hands on an O that needs a set.

mrmiller has a set for sale in the relative section.

Thanks guys.. I think to do one right the added expense would be worth it in the end. 200 bucks or so to add the cool factor is worth it to me.

I believe there is a set up for bidding on Ebay right now! Stumbled onto them while looking for other parts

They really do look cool. Who doesn't like the looks of an "O"?

If it runs as good as it looks, that cleveland O is a good deal.

But then......
.....there'd be nothing to work on.....
