The nameplate says Bobcat corp. Wheeling Ill. I'd have to get the titlw out, but I think it just say's Boncat. The US golf assoc. museum sent me a copy of an early 60's Golf Digest that has an ad for these in it. Says "get 72 holes to the gallon." Parts of them were made in a small factory in Frankfort, MI near me. An old friend of my granfather's used to be an engineer there and he is the person my father bought this cart from 20 some years ago. It has a battery powered headlight and tailight that someone must have added to make it street legal at one time. It has a license plate from 1964 (I think) on it still. That gives me an idea, maybe the secretary of state may find some info from that plate #. If anyone does know anything about these please let me know. I've only seen one picture of another one in the few years I've been searching for info. Anyway, it's a lot of fun and a real head turner on the golf course! On another note, I got my indy back from getting new needle and seats and a tune up today. Runs great, can't wait to get out there. We got 6-8 inches of fresh snow last night...gotta go!
