Thais was not built as a fork lift. I was built to be a tractor to pull farm equipment plows, harrows. disc. They were made to drive in reverse because it had more pulling power. I have seen several of these all built to drive backwards. The coolist one was a 1928 Buick. Hope this in formation helps...
