We're deep into a Cat 22 restoration, (2F series) and as the saying goes, "It ran when it was parked...." Little did we know that was 70 years ago. Luckily we have several parts 22's that we've acquired. One the engine is good, but transmission is toast, another just the opposite and so on.
The one we want to rebuild was from Westmont Tractor in Missoula, MT and they were the Cat dealer here for 50+ years. It had the original starter, generator, and battery box. (Original starter and ring gear, not a retrofit) The starter was missing, but the generator is there.
Anyone have or have a lead on an original Cat starter for a 2F 22? I heard the retro fit starters won't fit the original ring gear.
Also looking for a rear pulley assembly. (We have two PTO's, but will use only one if anyone is interested) We have several pieces at our museum that are belt drive and a pulley on the 22 would work perfect to run them.
I'm sure we'll have lots plenty of spare parts when we're done if your in the need for something
