Jimmybeam01 Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 So I’m unsure if this is classified as a tractor or lawn tractor but it’s sure badass and I would like to learn more about it and see how the heck I can get parts for it. I can’t find a thjng. And there isn’t really any model anything on it except for one mean cat, bobcat and see photos. its got a sweet twin onan in it that I can get to fire which is great. Just gonna work on it more to get it to run. 70” cut!
Jimmybeam01 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Posted July 28, 2019 Very upset today, 6 lanes of traffic and lost the rear hood. Said in huge letters one mean cat and the bob cat face. There was no getting it.. so I’m looking for that now..
Jimmybeam01 Posted July 28, 2019 Author Posted July 28, 2019 Yea I been here but I need vintage parts
oldsarge Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Look it up as "Ransomes' company name they're all over here,used to sell 'em
Jimmybeam01 Posted July 29, 2019 Author Posted July 29, 2019 That’s what I have been doing but it’s all the green machines that come up. I been searching “bobcat ransoms” and different keywords. Just wish I knew the year of this so I can start narrowing it down. To the specifics so I can start restoring it. Any help is much appreciated. Already gaining on finding machines that are similar. I am wondering if this is a mid 70’s machine?
simplewrench Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 I would think you could date it by the engine code but I’m not real familiar with onans.
midnightpumpkin Posted August 6, 2019 Posted August 6, 2019 The Onan was built in 1986 per the serial number. John U
oldsarge Posted August 7, 2019 Posted August 7, 2019 I just looked them up on E=bay and CL both and found them, LISTEN to what we say Look up "Ransomes" any thing comes up for "Melroe" skip it!! In early '90s they came with B&S,Kohler,&diesel engines. Look up'Ransomes T=17D
