I was thinking the same thing. Here's mine, 1948 Clark Clipper, aka a (rail) "Car loader". It will fit through a 36" door.

Sorry for the hyjack Mitch.

I've seen this thing in the live... it is as nice as everything else Bill owns. I think he even polishes it lolol!

Are those five foot forks on the Clark. We always put 6 foot forks on the 5K forks, so handy!

Anyone notice the car...

Lift is a '55 with a flat 4 Willy's converted to propane, like Bills. Unlike Bill's, I wouldn't dare drive mine on his cement. It marks it's territory almost constantly now from a worn hydraulic pump seal and is it a BIOTCH to change, hence it USED to be less expensive to just keep adding oil. Bought a 2 gallon jug at Fleet Farm Tuesday and about fell over... $35 for 2 gallons of hydraulic oil ?? Might be time to upgrade the pump and hoses, but that requires removing the counter weight.... Oh, it has no idea what polish is, or even a bath, it's just a tool...

My forks are 4' and I have 2X6 channel extensions for things like this.

Roof work was completed to semi-final stage and body was put on running gear. Then I threw a donor steering column in so I can steer it to push outside for paint. It's now in primer/sealer on a breezy day with the first of the bazillion cottonwood seeds to start falling. Lots of other small trash and suicide bugs in it, as it was getting towards evening by the time I got it all ready and outside. It WAS calm and full sun when I decided to get this done, but it clouded over and was difficult to follow the wet line on the roof. Full quart of paint on it, aside from what blew away in the gusts that came up as I was spraying. Should be enough thickness to sand everything out... fingers crossed.
