Need Year & Spec help with Toyota (1970's) FG35-61590

I need to know if anyone can properly date this forklift and I also need engine and HP ratings. A specification sheet would be greatly appreciated as well. Usually there is a number is in front of the "FG35" but there wasn't a number in this instance.

This is a gas engine and I found a nameblate on the block:

Okamura Mfg. Co.
Model: Y50511X
SN# 4090790


Thanks in advance!

Hey guys, I ended up finding it to be a 1974 with a Toyota 2F engine @ 84HP.

Thanks

Hello LJtoyota, I think you might have a Japanese truck that was imported decades ago. These units were sold cheap but they were for the Japanese market and parts were very hard to get and every thing on the truck was written in Japanese. I have contacted my local Dealer and there is nothing in the Main Toyota system on this Model and Serial #. They did stamp the Model and serial # on the right hand side of the truck frame just under the hood. I would scrape off the paint and see if you can find more info. Sorry for the bad news

The real old Toyotas didn't have a number before the FG. I ordered parts for one of those a while back and the Toyota dealer was able to look up everything. It had a 2R or 3R motor.

Fact of the week
Bluetooth is named after the 10th-century Viking king, Harald Bluetooth, who united warring tribes in Denmark and Norway. In 1997, Jim Kardach from Intel gave the name to the technology because of its ability to unite different communication protocols, just as Harald united various tribes.
