question about KHS/Mercier frame

It has eyelets for fenders....but is there really enough clearance to add fenders? I suspect not, but I've never seen one of these frames in person. Has anyone tried to put fenders on there? Just wondering......fender eyelets on a track frame seems kinda strange, but then again, one of those frames would make for a good crap weather bike, if fenders actually fit in there.
