Not being cruel but...
TELL you 'smartphone' to take 'smaller' pictures, how ?,  is your fun task....800x600 pixels is nice, anything less than I think <2MB is OK.

I upload pictures to MY 'folder' space in the 'member control panel'  THEN when I post a topic, grab them from there and NOT directly from my PC. works everytime...

Charles, i sent you my e-mail address. Send me your photos and i will post for you.

If you can download your photos to your computer, then open with PAINT and RESIZE to 800 x 600 and then you can post them... As JAY said, most new phones take photos about 3000 x 2000 pixels and that is 4-5 MEG of data..... Too big for a lot of sites that dont "auto resize".

The "160" on the block makes me think it is a D15 size motor.  Your fork truck is more of a "farm tractor size) with BIG wheels on the front end, and not  a forktruck limited to concrete use ??

something like this ??

If 987 is the serial #, its smack in the middle of production for 1970, per Swinford's construction book...Wink

at least they're all right side up Wink
If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.

I was hoping there wasn't a missing number between the 9 and the 87 that'd cause a lot of cornfusion...as in ordering parts for it.....Tongue
My Buda 4BD153 can have either a 3 or 4 set of rings.no way to tell from the outside...
