just picked up this tractor, diesel, needs lots of tlc, but does anyone have one of these and can talk about it k?
 
2500B is not an IH forklift model as far as I know. Could it be a 4500B. Massey Ferguson made a model 2500.
If it is a 4500B, does it have a gear drive or a torque converter drive?

Ran a search, came up with one in Wyoming for sale, but no pics - was hoping to see what it looked like.

2500B International fork lift, 1964 with 53 hp engine
 
Hi Ken,

I realize the 2500B is not very good.
Is a 4 cyl D-239 German Diesel with a Bosch fuel injection pump? Is so then it will be similar to IH agricultural 574 model.

INTERESTING, I LOOKED UP THOSE PICTURE FILES JIMB SENT IN THE LINK, THE 2500 DOES NOT LOOK LIKE MY MACHINE,HOWEVER IT HAS THE DECAL ON THE HOOD THAT SAYS IT IS A 2500 B, THEN I LOOKED UP THE SECOND PICTURE AND BINGO THERE IS MY MACHINE UNDER THE 4500 SERIES. THE ONE IN THE PICTURE IS GAS, MINE IS A DIESEL. DID SOMEONE CHANGE THE HOOD? WHAT A MYSTERY KEN
 
Hi Ken, I believe both the 2500 and 4500 series are based on the 574 farm tractor and the hoods should fit between a 2500 and 4500. The major differences were in the drive line, clutch and transmissions, hydro or gear drive.
In the case of the 4500 forklift the operator platform is reversed. There should be a serial number on the engine on left side on flat spot by the oil filter mount. Maybe difficult to see with the side rails. The D-239 engine was used in many applications, 574,674,684,695.

Hope this helps
