This cab was left in my barn by the previous owners. I have no idea what it was made to fit. It is made of fiberglass and has glass in the windshield and back window. There is a canvas/vinyl door for the left side and a 1/2 size panel for the right. There are also holes in the front above the windshield for a wiper, I assume.
One guess might be for something made by Cushman as there was a Cushman factory nearby for many years.
By the way, if someone either knows what it fits or thinks they can make it fit, I would be willing to part with it for a reasonable amount.

looks like it might got to an old escavator (sp?) from way back before they all came with cabs and rops

Yeah, a payloader or a hi lift fork lift, too, maybe.

It could be from something like a Cushman truckster, but all the pictures of Cushmans I found had more or less horizontal windshields.

If there was room for two under it I was thinking something like the meter maids drive. For all I know, those could be the cushmans you're talking about. It definitely looks like is was designed for a driver that was getting in and out a lot. Sure looks like it would make for a great cover on one of the portable sawmills.

Here's a picture of meter maid vehicles from the Lincoln PD in the late 1960's. The cabs are somewhat different, but similarly sized.
