What else do you do with forks besides lift pallets?

Agreed. My HF furniture moving cart works, but barely...

Same here. I thought I was clever making an adjustable width cart out of wood to set my forks on. It's never been adjusted after the first time and doesn't roll very well. Should be pretty simple to make the fork dolly in the picture.

Then there's the Hot Tub. Built a base with fork pockets.

I have 20 years of pics of it!! :laughing:

The PO was a Canadian,, his company moved him to Roanoke VA,,, he brought it along for free.
THEN,, he got ready to retire,,, and found moving the tractor back would be on HIS nickel!! :confused2:
The price to move it was going to be about a dollar a pound,, the 584 weighs 10,000 pounds.

He quickly decided to sell,, I quicklier decided to write the check.
He lived 29 miles from me,,, and his wife asked "How are you gonna get it home??"
I told her,,, "Right down your driveway!",,,, I drove it home that day.

Cool tractor and cool story

Now that tractor looks like a TRACTOR.

Are those original tires, by any chance?

Also, more pics would be nice.

Is that the wife up in the basket?

That is a beautiful IH tractor. When quality and a nameplate meant something.

I wonder if the dealer is still in business??

I have never heard of them. It can't be that old, with the area code listed.
