Wtb D1700 pony

Maybe you could consider a retired race horse:first:, would run faster than a pony😉, think it would be difficult to rebuild an old pony.😆😆😆

They are the largest pony made by Cat and are unique to this engine. Early ones had Timken main bearings. Also there was no exhaust running through the intake of the big engine.

I don't want an old pony,
They rebuilt the six million dollar man!

That might be about how much you need to fix this one ; ) :eek2:

So long as it makes that “ma ma ma ma na na na na ta ta ta ta” sound the six million dollar man makes it would be totally worth it!!! Lol

Many years back I heard of a large Cat gen set way north from home here in SE Qld ,,, got some pic sent ,,, turned out to be a D17000 ,, with a large gen set attached ,, the gen set is UK built ,, has LONDON stamped into it ,,,, was running a saw-mill . But has an extra engine tag fitted giving the LIMA shovel #s. . She has the bar holes in pony flywheel and luckly also an electric starter for pony .. ... Best wishes pete ps will go get couple pics of pony !!

Few more pics ,,, the Generator is a very heavy unit !!! has LONDON ENGLAND stamped to it ,,,, don't know any history of it .. You can see the LIMA tag on pic .. I think I saw some parts D17000s at the Tractor parts Ol boys in Boise ID ...USA.
