The winning entry belongs to Brian from Woodstock, Georgia, who submitted an operational 1977 Yale GLP-030 forklift (Serial No. P229752).
The nationwide search was launched by Intella Parts to discover the longest-lasting Yale equipment still in service. Out of all submissions received and verified by our team, Brian’s 1977 model proved to be the oldest working unit we located throughout the campaign.
Winning Equipment Details Identified:
• Owner: Brian (Woodstock, GA)
• Manufacturer: Eaton Corporation – Industrial Truck Division
• Model Number: GLP-030-UAT-085-P
• Model Year: 1977
• Serial Number: P229752
• Fuel Type: LP (Liquefied Petroleum)
• Capacity: 2,800 lbs
The unit features its original Eaton Corporation data plate and remains a testament to durable industrial engineering and proper equipment maintenance.
“We set out to find the oldest Yale forklift across our network, and Brian’s 1977 GLP-030 is the oldest unit our search contest uncovered,” said Intella Parts management. “Finding a nearly 50-year-old forklift that continues to operate reliably highlights both the legendary build quality of classic Yale trucks and the dedication of owners who keep them running.”
Intella Parts congratulates Brian on holding the title for the oldest Yale forklift found through our contest.
