“Even if customers are operating older forklifts, Intella can supply the aftermarket parts they need to keep these older models running,” says Marcel VandenTop, president of Intella Parts Company. This is the second year Intella has run its ‘oldest forklift’ competition. In 2023, a multi-month competition resulted in the finding of a 1945 KD model in Amarillo, Texas.
