That’s sweet. That is a lot of money sitin it that buildin too.

Pretty cool little forklift. I like how he not only documented the work he did on it but, had documentation on the forklift itself. Stay safe.

Man, I miss the old days where USA made practical life long lasting tractors and home improvement equipment, You can't even get the smallest sub compact tractor for barely $15,000 15K for a damn garden tractor!

@T3chn0ph0b3 I grew up mowing 3 acres on a 70s cadet 1650 hydostat, that thing ripped for a lawn mower. I graduated High School in 2004, it still ran when I left the homestead.

FrequencyOfThought This forklift cost $2500 in 1966. Using a online inflation calculator, thats equal to $19,726 today. For that much money you could buy a brand new John Deere 1023e sub-compact tractor with front scoop and forks. The modern John Deere has transformer like capabilities, meaning you can spend more money to add implements (attachments so you can change equipment) to the front, belly, and rear. By adding accessories, the 1023e can be your shovel, backhoe, lawn mower, fork lift, snow blower, tiller, gravel driveway blade leveler, grapple, rake, sidewalk sweeper, post hole digger, on and on. You can even get a cab enclosure with heat and windshield wiper. Oh, and changing from one implement to the next has never been easier, safer, or faster. You get roll-over protection, low emissions, and far more horse power then the unit shown in this video. Still to expensive? Well, you’re in luck because plenty of China made off-brand competitors exist for thousands less. Once you take into account inflation, the subcompact tractor buyer can get more today then they could in 1966. Check out the KZread channel Tractor Time with Tim to see what you can do with a economical, modern sub-compact tractor.

Neat.and bet it gets used quite a bit.handy

You can't beat this stuff! Brilliant!!!

Wow! It's cool! I've never seen one before!

That is a really rare Case garden tractor and I bet it's handy, I have a small collection in Case Garden tractors also. But not 60 of them :-)

Amazing. And love the story too! Gotta save them classics!

Good for him, just love the preservation answer history of old machines

Awsome! Pretty cool ! Very rare

I’ve seen a Simplicity lawn tractor that had an attachment similar to this. The guy that owned it said that it wouldn’t lift much but that it was perfect to raise a deer to skin it.

Everyone needs a small forklift.

I can think of a million uses for that thing!

I remember Steve from the Case forums I used to go on. I had two Case 448’s including the 8th 448 made #9774008 which was a 1979 model. I sold it about 5 years ago, and sold all my Case stuff one at a time. I needed something newer and now I have Toro 5xi tractors.

Really cool that was the year I was born beautiful job bringing it back to life

Cool idea! 👍

Wow real nice restore I'm a big case fan don't have a collection but I have a 1973 case 220 full hydraulics still mow with it on occasion just to keep it running good

Great job that thing is sweet

That is very cool

Hello from my 1978 448. Still in use

Nice 🤠💪👍

We had a local guy that used old Case lawn tractors to make something similar for nurseries. He made about a dozen of them, in the 80’s. He’s gone now, haven’t seen any of the tractors in years.

Mr. Guider is a legend in the CCI community.

I live in Ohio at the moment, and I'm damn sure is like to visit that place

I have to say this will be my bucket list for sure. IS the collection of Case up for showing ??? Maybe later this year in the summertime ??? Thanks

Nice video

That thing is cool! I'd love to have one. (Don't need one) but I still want one! Lol

Man that narow front is soooo cool

That’s a cool little rig one of a kind would be worth a few dollars to the right man

True. Still I feel like this would still be handy because of how small it is.

I have a Case 190 Garden tractor with plow and snow blower. Still runs, looking for that exact muffler that was on the fork lift 190!

I need to find a place to get part for my '65 130. unfortunately I let it fall into a state of disrepair. I'd like to get it going again even if it is unrestored

i want one now

I had a little sears tractor never saw one before it had wings sort of for the back fenders was going to make a little hot rod out of it but sold it must have been from the early or late 60s

i worked at Case in the early 70s. in Wichita, ks

The other rare old Case was the stretched one turned into something between a UTV and a garden tractor. I think about 50 of those were made too. Then in the 80’s Case made some 60” pull type wing mowers,,, of which I saw one at the first Garden Tractor Daze in Wisconsin about 8-9 years ago when I brought my 79 448 there #9774008 the 8th 448 made. I sold it about 6 years ago.

@T3chn0ph0b3 JD is not MTD. Change my mind.

At 2:53-56 it looks like it had a boxed frame. Is that the same frame that was used for the later 1972-79 Case 644 FEL (front end loader) Industrial Case tractors? or were all Case Garden tractors using boxed frames and the 644 used a stronger version of this frame?

Gud tractor

How is the handling different than other tractor based forklifts ? Almost all I'v seen run the tractor backwards and I'v never heard any one with forklift experience say they handle any different than any other conventional forklift.

When we built quality products here not cheap Chinese junk thank you Mr Reagan

2500 in 2020 is alot of money lol

$2500 in 1966 is $20,240 in 2021 dollars, so yea, you can buy a pretty nice used rough terrain forklift for less than that so who would bother. No one.

Just in-Case you need a forklift.

If you charge to much for your product, no one will buy it and you will go belly up, I agree.
