What crawler do these go on? Answer: HG or OC-3

[hotratz]

A couple pieces of sheet metal marked for an HG on Craigslist. What do they belong to?

I was wondering that myself. I've never seen side panels on an HG or OC-3. I was thinking they may be for a Hercules power unit. It seems someone must know what they are as they have a bid at $199.00

[hotratz]

Well somebody knew what they were. They fetched over $400.00

Some HG31 and HG42 HGs had side engine panels - very neat! I had seen one HG photo of them fitted (a Dunlop collector card - see pic). I guess I was too busy winning them on eBay to see this thread

Now the mystery is over, maybe Blake can move this to the HG OC3 section? Thanks Blake.

WOW! That is cool! Do you have all the hardware needed to put this together?

[oliverchris]

Hmm, we will see about that. Not much to it on other larger Cletracs, so I hope it doesn't take much messing about. Might put them on my '45 HG42 pictured left as my 'avatar' or whatever the kids call 'logos' these days! But they'd look great on my OC3-31 sidewalk plow too.

Nice timing on that bid, Chris!!!

Lucky too - my top bid was $410 so I just squeaked in - phew!
