McCormick Super W-4 Forklift

[Anonymous Poster]

Hi, I have a '53 IH Super W-4 "special industrial" tractor with a factory-installed Tracto forklift. Operator and steering wheel are placed backwards compared to a "normal" W-4. It is a very unusual machine and have never seen another. I have also yet to find a picture or mention of one in any IH history book I've read. Does anyone out there know of these machines or of mentions? Anyone interested if I list it on an auction site? Value? Thanks. jd
