[QUOTE="Clodhopper, post: 88395, member: 12675"] Thanks for the info, it looks to me like you are right about it being a C-series. I guess it's still the most recent machine I own by a few decades. Any suggestion about what to do for parts without a SN? Will just knowing the series get me close enough? I tried getting a seat belt for it at the Bobcat dealership, and even for that they were reluctant to try without the SN. I bought this off of Craig's List in central Pa, but when I was looking at other 873s on machinery trader to get a sense of what they go for, etc, I saw the same machine sitting next to the same orange Dodge. The guy I bought it from said that there are brokers that relist these things, and if they can sell them for more they come and get them and pocket the difference. He said he had one skid steer he wanted 12,500 for, and a broker sold it for 17 something. So I guess you can't trust that these machines are where you think they are, or are being sold by the guy that actually has them. I gave about 8 for the 873. [/QUOTE]
