forklift question

Looked at a old Allis Chalmers forklift tonight. 4 cyl propane engine,169" single cyl ram, side shift, torque converter, small rubber wheels, tag says 3900lb lift weight. My question is what would be the weight of this machine? My son thinks it should be about 4000lb. I think he is going to sell it for scrap price.
 
Not familiar with that particular unit, but from experience with different lifts assuming it is a short wheelbase, figure it to weigh 1 1/2 to 2 times what it can lift.
