F= forklift B=? 20=2000lb capacity 24=@24inch load center.
Waukeshau engine. Good old machine. Made until I believe 1973. Good head gaskets are a problem. Only crap gaskets available! Clutch is still available as are brake parts. Have fun!

I bought it from my boss, which bought it at an auction in 03 or 04. At that time it did run, shortly after getting it to the farm it started to have some problems. So it was parked in the back of the shed, so this has been sitting idol since 04-05. I think I can get it going with some minor repairs, (tune up & find the drain to the electric system).

Allis Chalmers bought out a company called Buda in 1953. That is the last of the Buda/Allis Chalmers forklifts. That serial number makes it a 1958. I believe that's a Waukeshau engine. Let me know what you need for parts. Send me a better picture of the engine if you can. 
Was that machine originally from Coca Cola?
