$500 for a "O" in that condition is just insane. It is more like a $200 tractor. BTW, it really not missing the fenders. The fenders were a option and if you want a set for it, then you are looking at around a $200 investment. I've seen them sell for as much as $250. A good welded seat will sell for $50 to $100 and a unwelded seat will go for over $100. The seat cracked in the middle a lot. It's very hard to find one that hasn't been welded. You could probably find something a lot cheaper and maybe not so far away.
Truckntran congrats on the new machine. I told you, you had better buy that one. I think Yosemite Sam might be on to something there with swaping the carrier. I think I can remember reading a post where someone put their rearend together backwards and said it would go real slow in forwards but fly in reverse. It shouldn't take more than a afternoons worth of work and it's a whole lot cheaper than buying a new engine.
