Catapiller T50B gas 3MAST forklift 16'ht. vintage nice

Catapiller, Cat, T50B Forklift Triple Beam, Ser # 12N270
this is a triple mast-verified lift height is 16 feet with certified for 5000 lbs to full ht
no sideshift (except manual move forks)-what really makes this lift valuable is the unusual height (even for a triple mast)-it is like 16 to 18 foot full load reach height where lots are like 12 to 14 feet
I’ve been using this forklift approximately 3 years now without owning it.
It has never failed to start, except once when the ignition switch, then the battery failed. Both have been replaced. The foot brakes are very poor, we use the parking brake instead.
I believe this piece is about 30 years old.
Some hose have minor exterior crackling, but interiors must be good, since none leak.
Any questions, please ask. If I cannot supply the answers, I will ask Jeff, the owner, who knows much more about this than I do.
The lift is located at 204 N. 12th St., Tampa, FL 33602. That's Channelside, near the Floridas Aquarium and Cruise Terminal.
You may also call (***) 831-3331 for an appointment to see the lift, 24/7, I live nearby.
