Got it home ,someone must of sent this tractor out to a company that installed forklifts .Seeing it in person you can tell its well built . Thanks to my little buddy Harvey for letting me know and bidding on it at a local consignment auction. Last picture shows foot throttle.      ------------- He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless ,still dead. If all else fails ,Read all that is PRINTED. |

That is going to be a handy little bugger. There needs to be a toy made of it. ------------- 2-8070FWA PS/8050PS/7080/7045PS/200/D15-II/2-WD45/WD/3-WC/UC/C |

That's sweet! It sure would make carrying the logs out of the woods a lot easier. And you could bring them up to standing height for cutting up. Now you gotta get another toy made. ------------- D14, D17, 5020, 612H, CASE 446 |

Lol. The D15 was worth the money for sure with a good running engine but with it being pieced together I was not interested plus the serial number should have had a D at the end of it. The WF with the fork lift is really cool though and is unique. Maybe I can buy it some day lol ------------- 37 A,37 Waukesha B,35 WC,38 WF,M crawler,49 WF,49 WD,53 WD45,39 and 40 RC,47 WC,41 B,39 B,48G,48,C,59D10,D21,IB,B10,B12,B208,B1,Roto Bale Loader, sp100 combine, allcrop 66, L3 Gleaner |

| I've got a Harlo rough terrain forklift. Its based on a Ford industrial, but I've seen their name on International chassis and a few Deere's all so. Thinking they built on whoever gave them the best deal at the time for base units. |

| Is that the hydraulic pump behind distributor ? If it is, I bet it eats up governor shafts. MACK |

| Looks like it might also have "side shift"? Those one of a kind units are a challenge to restore, but so worth the time and trouble once they are done. |

| In the early 2000's I attended a farm estate auction east of Peoria, IL. The family had converted WC's into forklifts. Lots of new, old stock WC parts that had been removed from new WC's before they were converted to forklifts. The sale was a walk back in time. |

well, I LIKE it !!! It's older than me, and I suspect in better condition than a lot of us !!! Can you get in INSIDE your shop/garage without 'modifying' the doorway ?? I'd liek to see it run but undesided if it should be kept 'in working clothes' or 'trailer queen restored'.....

I think it would be really cool restored. Those 1-of-a kinds are neat to have and restore! ------------- 39'RC, 43'WC, 48'B, 49'G, 50'WF, 65 Big 10, 67'B-110, 75'716H, 2-620's, & a Motorhead wife |
