Look thru these used listings to see what matches. https://www.machinerytrader.com/lis...gory/1060/wheel-loaders/manufacturer/michigan
Looks too small to be a 175 but I think it could be a Clark 55B or Clarke Michigan 55. What engine does it have? Someone on here may have a serial number guide or Volvo may be able to help. https://www.purplewave.com/auction/110224/item/6500 HeavyEquipmentForums
nice looking machine whatever it turns out to be. my guess would be 75-85
I thought 55 because of the tire size. At that point I guess it could be a 45.
55 has the steps on the front of the hyd. tank not the side like larger models. 45 has a different loader boom and tilt cylinder arms.
