I think it's a vehicle built by Clark, sometimes called a Clarktor. There are a lot of similarities, and whether the rear section is original or not? I don't know. But, there are a lot of similarities; the engine, hubs steering column.

Do you know who made the engine

I was looking at info on flat head 6 cyl Chrysler engines and airport tug engines were listed.
I didn't look to deep but it looks like Chrysler's industrial dept. designed these for airports use in particular. They had been already been supplying industrial engines for tugs all though WWII.
I found out that my engine was painted blue would that be why I can not find a number that is supposed to be stamp where it is pictured or does that have nothing to do with that

230 cubic inch 123 HP first came out in 1958
Your tug was built some time after April 1963.
Look on line, there seems to be a market for these.
Do you know a model number for it

Plan "B"
Head part number & Length (161305-1 ?)
Intake & Exhaust manifold numbers (1120002 1 ?) date code 3 -12-?
Water Pump number
I worked on a small Chrysler marine engine , it was a running engine that had less than 60 PSI compression and leaked close to a gallon of oil an hour.
The boat was back in service in two days.
Here is the pictures of the Head part number and intake and exhaust manifold numbers. The only thing is I cannot find the numbers on the water pump do I take the water pump off or am I looking at the wrong thing for the water pump

I suggest it was never stamped, not worn off.

The number is stamped into a area that was ground flat, just under the head.
The number on the right side of your photo may be a casting date code it may tell the day and month of the casting
That plate is worn off there’s nothing there anymore
Here is a picture of it

Look just below where the horn is mounted on the block, there is a machined area on the side of the block( just below the head) and there should be a number there.
This is a 1948 Chrysler engine. If you look just ahead of the black oil fill tube you can see the number.
Is this the correct plate it is the only plate I see

I agree about the airport tug. Possibly even for aircraft towing. The dump box might be a later modification. There is probably an I.D. plate somewhere on the main chassis.

I thought that it was but I think it might of been painted over but maybe not it does not look like anything John Deere made I have been looking online for one like it but I have had no luck
